Francisco and Richard,
Why ask about disk or raid? How would that impact any settings in
postgresql.conf?
Well, random_page_cost will depend on how fast your disk system can
locate a non-sequential page. If you have a 16-disk RAID-10 array that's
noticably less time than a single 5400rpm IDE in a laptop.
I did forget the obvious question:
What OS are you using?
Tricky to keep simple, isn't it :-)
