> The solaris x86 ist 64-bit and the compiled postgres is as well 64-bit. Either it's not really a 64-bit build, or you made an error in your math. What did you try to set shared_buffers to, exactly? Did you increase any other parameters at the same time? regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
