I really think that's a recipe for disaster. Even on a regular machine you need to treat tuning as an on-going feedback process. There's no such thing as a fail-proof configuration since every application is different. On an exotic machine like this you're going to run into unique problems that nobody here can anticipate with certainty. -- Gregory Stark EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
