Your experiment made far too many assumptions and the data does not
stand up to scrutiny.

I am currently using a dual Opteron (248) single core system (RAM
PC3200) and for a change I am finding that the bottleneck is not disk

Can you log the statements that are taking a long time and post them
to the list with the table structures and indexes for the tables
my config file.
max_fsm_pages = 50 # I am thinking this might be a bit low.
max_fsm_relations = 1000
Any pointers to better hardware or recommendations on settings gladly recieved.
