It would be useful to see a full breakdown of those results. There's always a bottleneck on something for any particular task and we shouldn't presume the problem is only on CPU, for all data on all systems. CPU parallelism is the most pressing problem, I agree, but I think we will quickly hit problems without memory limits. But I agree with Andrew that this will be a nice problem to have and not everything is possible by Nov 1. -- Simon Riggs www.2ndQuadrant.com PostgreSQL Training, Services and Support -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
