Hello all, We are planning to test one of our products, which works with Oracle, on PostgreSQL. The database size is about 100 GB. It is a product with a not-so-high load ( about 10 tps - mostly read). My doubts are about PostgreSQL settings. For Oracle, we give about 4 GB SGA (shared buffer) and 1.5 GB PGA (sum of session-specific memory). The machine configuration is Opteron 2CPU * 4cores @ 2.3GHz 16GB RAM OS Solaris10 x64
So far I have changed the following settings in postgresql.conf shared_buffers = 2GB temp_buffers = 8MB work_mem = 16MB maintenance_work_mem = 32MB wal_level = archive checkpoint_segments = 10 checkpoint_completion_target = 0.7 archive_mode = on effective_cache_size = 6GB log_destination = 'csvlog' logging_collector = on log_directory = '/backup/datapump/pgdata/log' log_filename = 'postgresql-%Y-%m-%d_%H%M%S.log' log_rotation_age = 1d client_min_messages = notice log_min_messages = warning log_min_duration_statement = 3000 Could you please let me know the parameters I should pay attention to? Do the settings mentioned above look OK? We are suing weblogic. Should we let weblogic manage the connection pool or try something else?
