Hi Folk, 

I am trying to investigate some performance issues which we have with postgres
(a different topic by itself) and tried postgres.9.4beta2, with a hope that it
perform better.

Turned out that 9.4 is 2x slower than 9.3.5 on the same hardware.

Some technical details:

  Host: rhel 6.5 2.6.32-431.23.3.el6.x86_64
  256 GB RAM, 40 cores, Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2660 v2 @ 2.20GHz
  2x160GB  PCIe SSD DELL_P320h-MTFDGAL175SAH ( on one 9.3, on an other one 9.4 )

postgres tweaks:


default_statistics_target = 100
wal_writer_delay = 10s
vacuum_cost_delay = 50
synchronous_commit = off
maintenance_work_mem = 2GB
checkpoint_completion_target = 0.9
effective_cache_size = 94GB
work_mem = 402MB
wal_buffers = 16MB
checkpoint_segments = 64
shared_buffers = 8GB
max_connections = 100
random_page_cost = 1.5
# other goodies
log_line_prefix = '%m <%d %u %r> %%'
log_temp_files = 0
log_min_duration_statement = 5

in both cases databases are fresh - no data.

Here is a results with pgbench.

any ideas?
