here is another really informative article (pdf) http://www.storagesearch.com/easyco-flashperformance-art.pdf. The conclusions are different...they claim it's hard to make good use of ssd advantages if you do any random writing at all. Of course, they are also developing an automagical solution to the problem. The information is good though...it's certainly worth a read. The problem is probably solvable. merlin -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
