Does anyone have a reasonable guess as to the inserts per second postgres is capable of these days on middle-of-the-road hardware? Any order of magnitude would be fine: 10, 100, 1000, 10,000.
my dedicated database server in my lab, which is a 2U dual Xeon X5660 box with 12 cores at 2.8ghz, 48GB ram, and 20 15000rpm SAS drives in a RAID10 with a 1GB flash-cached raid card, can pretty easily sustain 6000 or more writes/second given enough threads doing the work, although indexes, and/or large rows would slow that down. a single connection/thread will not get that much throughput.
thats my definition of a middle of the road database server. I have no idea what yours is.
