No.
"effective_io_concurrency"  works when an OS can use posix_fadvise().
But I think WinXP  doesn't have posix_fadvise().

>and what is the difference between effective_io_concurrency = 0

If effective_io_concurrency = 0,PostgreSQL never uses PREFETCH.
On my environment, my PostgreSQL doesn't start up when effective_io_concurrency=1.
#My environment WinXP sp2 and PostgreSQL is 8.4.4, too.

Hello.

I have 2 questions:
Is effective_io_concurrency working on WinXP sp2 ?
and what is the difference between effective_io_concurrency = 0
and effective_io_concurrency = 1


Postgres 8.4.4
