But the select count(*) query, cached in RAM is 3x faster in one system than the other. The CPUs aren't 3x different performance wise. Something else may be wrong here. An individual Core2 Duo 2.93Ghz should be at most 50% faster than a 2.2Ghz Opteron for such a query. Unless there are some compile options that are set wrong. I would check the compile options. -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
