Re: Don't see much difference between i386 vs amd64
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 where are you getting those numbers from? BogoMIPS is information from your CPU, and they don't mean anything. Which is why they are "Bogo" or Bogus. - -ben "Unix is user friendly, Its just picky about its friends."

Re: xeon 64....
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 this is the right place to ask about xeon 64, it is the same instruction set as amd64. Shh! No one tell intel they are a clone chip maker! I am running i386 Debian on an opteron, and there really isn't a preformance issue, but I'm not stressing the system or doing benchmark comparisons. I would try the Debian-Installer images on Alioth, but unfortunately, it's been up and down with hardware issues. Once it's back up, I would install the amd64 port of Debian and give postgres a try - -ben "Unix is user friendly, Its just picky about its friends."
