What Scott said ... seconded, all of it.
I'm running one 500GB database on a 64-bit, 8GB VMware virtual machine, with
2 vcores, PG 8.3.9 with shared_buffers set to 2GB, and it works great.
However, it's a modest workload, most of the database is archival for data
mining, and the working set for

Our server manager seems to think that I have way to much memory. He

You organisation probably spent more money getting your server manager to

Can anybody clarify on this, why wal_buffer is 64kb and what is advantages
and disadvantages in increasing or decreasing the wal_buffer.

If you do large transactions, which emits large quantities of xlog, be
aware that while the previous xlog segment is being fsynced, no new writes
happen to the next segment. If you use large wal_buffers (more than 16 MB)
these buffers can absorb xlog data while the previous segment is
Hi All,
We have a postgres database in which couple of tables get bloated due to
heavy inserts and deletes. Auto vacuum is running. My question is how
can I make auto vacuum more aggressive? I am thinking of enabling
autovacuum_vacuum_cost_delay and autovacuum_vacuum_cost_limit
parameters.

Hello,
Wondering what's a good value for effective_io_concurrency when dealing with
FusionIO drives...anyone have any experience with this?
I know that SSDs vary from 10 channels to 30, and that 1 SSD about as fast as a
4-drive RAID, but I can't seem to settle on a good value to use for
