Are you 100% certain that both builds are using all the same libraries?
And to be an apples-apples comparison, you really need to ensure that
the datadir is on the same filesystem in both cases (that's the first
thing I'd check).

Also, that pg_index... error sounds like the second build has been
corrupted.

Hello all,

I've been running performance tests on various incantations of Postgres
on/off for a month or so.  And, I've just come across some unexpected
results.

When I start my Postgres build as such:

# (Scenario 1)

./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib --bindir=/usr/bin
--includedir=/usr/include/pgsql --datadir=/usr/share/postgresql
--mandir=/usr/share/man --with-docdir=/usr/share/doc/packages
--disable-rpath --enable-thread-safety --enable-integer-datetimes
--without-python --without-perl --without-tcl --without-tk

It performs significantly worse than when I start my build like this:

# (Scenario 2)

./configure --disable-rpath --enable-thread-safety
--enable-integer-datetimes --without-python --without-perl --without-tcl
--without-tk

Note:  the only differences are that Scenario 1 includes these
options:

--prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib --bindir=/usr/bin
--includedir=/usr/include/pgsql --datadir=/usr/share/postgresql
--mandir=/usr/share/man --with-docdir=/usr/share/doc/packages

And, to be clear, Scenario 1 performs worse than Scenario 2.  Simple
insert statements are taking significantly longer. 


I did not expect to see a performance hit with these options, especially
since /usr/ on the test machine is mounted as its own partition, and
in both cases, all of the binaries, include files, etc. are in that
partition. 


Has anyone seen this before?  Are hard drive mechanics the only thing in
play here?


The only difference I'm seeing in logging between the two versions is
that Scenario 2 has several of this message littered throughout the
logfile:

ERROR: could not open relation pg_index_indexrelid_index: No such file
or directory

But, that doesn't seem to be effecting functionality or performance
(especially considering the fact that the logfile that contains that
message is part of the test that is performing better).

We're using Postgres 7.4.8, building from the SLES9 Postgres 7.4.8
source rpm. 


Thanks for any help you can provide.  I can provide more detail if
needed.

Thanks again,

Bob

OK, now that I had a second look on that page, it does contain
unsubscription info... but it's well hidden for the fugitive  
look... the

caption is a big Subscribe to Lists, you wouldn't think at a first
glance think that the form is actually used to unsubscribe too, would

So maybe it's just that the text should be more explicit about what it

Better yet, have an unsubscribe page...

If you really can't figure out how to unsubscribe from a list, you should

list. The convention for lists is that adding '-owner' to the local part

A good place to search to find out how to unsubscribe to a list is to search
for the mailing lists using google. Usually the information on how to subscribe

to subscribe in the first place, so you should be able to figure out how

No, the standard is that the list information is kept in the headers so that
it can be extracted by mail clients that care to. There is an RFC describing
these headers. They are supplied by the mailing list software used for the
Postgres mailing lists. Have your mail client display full headers for one
of the list messages to get the instructions from there.

To be a bit constructive, could it be an idea to add unsubscribe
information as one of the standard tailer tips?  Then unsubscribe info
wouldn't appear in every mail, but often enough for people considering
to unsubscribe.  To be totally non-constructive, let me add a bit to the
noise below:

  contact the list owner, not the list. The list members can't unsubscribe you
  (and it isn't their job to) and the owner may not be subscribed to the

Re: [PERFORM] Unsubscribe

2006-10-04 Thread Nolan Cafferky




This seems to be the nearly unanimous response to people posting an
unsubscribe request to the postgres mailing lists. I emphatically
agree with the argument - people should know better than that, and the
information included in the e-mail headers should be more than
sufficient. Every conceivable avenue of discovering how to unsubscribe,
other than the list software attaching a footer on each e-mail, is
available to pursue.

I also don't care about that argument in this situation. People
ignorantly posting an unsubscribe to the list get this kind of response
because it's an annoyance to the list users, not necessarily because we
care about educating that particular person. The posts obviously don't
help future unsubscribers who aren't willing to track the information
down anyway. We should be addressing this from the standpoint of what
benefits long-term list users the most. The real question is: which is
more annoying to list users, the occasional unsubscribe posted to the
list (with accompanying responses), or a one-line footer on each post
providing a link to unsubscribe instructions?

There are reasons you don't want to do that. Footers work OK for single

You can probably take a crap shoot and add the footer to the first
text/plain part and not break things. This won't work so well for multipart
alternative messages that have text/plain and text/html parts. You could

First, ask your Internet Provider to mail you an Unsubscribing Kit.
Then follow these directions.

The kit will most likely be the standard no-fault type. Depending on
requirements, System A and/or System B can be used. When operating
System A, depress lever and a plastic dalkron unsubscriber will be
dispensed through the slot immediately underneath. When you have
fastened the adhesive lip, attach connection marked by the large X
outlet hose. Twist the silver-coloured ring one inch below the
connection point until you feel it lock.

The kit is now ready for use. The Cin-Eliminator is activated by the
small switch on the lip.  When securing, twist the ring back to its
initial condition, so that the two orange lines meet.  Disconnect.
Place the dalkron unsubscriber in the vacuum receptacle to the rear.
Activate by pressing the blue button.

The controls for System B are located on the opposite side. The red
release switch places the Cin-Eliminator into position; it can be
adjusted manually up or down by pressing the blue manual release
button. The opening is self-adjusting. To secure after use, press the
green button, which simultaneously activates the evaporator and
returns the Cin-Eliminator to its storage position.

You may log off if the green exit light is on over the evaporator.  If
the red light is illuminated, one of the Cin-Eliminator requirements
has not been properly implemented. Press the List Guy call button on
the right of the evaporator. He will secure all facilities from his
control panel.

To use the Auto-Unsub, first undress and place all your clothes in the
clothes rack. Put on the velcro slippers located in the cabinet
immediately below. Enter the shower, taking the entire kit with
you. On the control panel to your upper right upon entering you will
see a Shower seal button. Press to activate. A green light will then
be illuminated immediately below. On the intensity knob, select the
desired setting. Now depress the Auto-Unsub activation lever. Bathe
normally.

The Auto-Unsub will automatically go off after three minutes unless
you activate the Manual off override switch by flipping it up. When
you are ready to leave, press the blue Shower seal release
button. The door will open and you may leave. Please remove the velcro
slippers and place them in their container.

If you prefer the ultrasonic log-off mode, press the indicated blue
button. When the twin panels open, pull forward by rings A  B. The
knob to the left, just below the blue light, has three settings, low,
medium or high. For normal use, the medium setting is suggested.

After these settings have been made, you can activate the device by
switching to the ON position the clearly marked red switch. If
during the unsubscribing operation you wish to change the settings,
place the manual off override switch in the OFF position. You may
now make the change and repeat the cycle. When the green exit light
goes on, you may log off and have lunch. Please close the door behind
you.

That will *always* happen. Just human nature and the numbers of  
subscribers. However, a one-liner that either points to the webpage  
for unsubscribing (probably easiest) or a brief description on how to  
unsubscribe (To unsubscribe, send an email to  
[EMAIL PROTECTED] with body unsub pgsql-performance (without  
quotes)) may intercept a few more. Is there a way to configure  
Majordomo to make even easier to unsubscribe? Just sending to pgsql- 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] or some such? I've seen other  
mailing lists that do this. Requiring a specific command (what's the  
command? in the subject or the body?) is one more place a person can  
make a mistake. (I've recently switched mail accounts and unsubbed/ 
subbed from the lists I'm on. This latter style does make it a lot  
easier.)


(And are there mail readers out there that can pick those subscribe/ 
unsubscribe headers from the list emails? Now *that'd* be sweet.)

I suspect it is more lazyiness that smarts. That had to at least figure out
how to respond to the confirm message in the first place in order to get
subscribed.
My theory is that they don't want to take the trouble to figure out how to
unsubscribe when they (think that they) can just send a message to the list
(not even the admin) asking to be unsubscribed and it will (well actually won't
on these lists) happen.

Maybe posts with unsubscribe in the subject could be held for moderation
and/or get an automated reply with instructions for unsubscribing.

 Well, in my fairly ancient copy of exmh, any message with such headers
 causes an additional menu to appear:

Based on the constantly broken threading in the lists, I'd bet that less
than 20% of posters use something more sophisticated than MS LookOut!,
and I'm sure that the stats for subscribers are far worse.

Does majordomo have an option to automagically handle such posts that
are sent to the post address instead of the admin address? I know
mailman can do that...

You mean like these headers that already get added to every list

List-help: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
List-owner: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
List-subscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
List-unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Plus there are at least two of the random tips that deal with how to
unsubscribe.  My feeling is that the people who can't figure this out
still won't figure it out, no matter how thick the cluebat we swing at
them :-(

Maybe the real problem is at the other end of the process, ie we should
require some evidence of a greater-than-room-temp IQ to subscribe in the
