I don't have any numbers handy on how much turning synchronous_commit
and full_page_writes off improves performance on a system with a
battery-backed write cache. Your numbers are therefore a bit inflated
against similar one

One thing that jumps out at me is that with a 91GB database, and no
pushback on buying 64GB of RAM, it
I've been reading this list for a couple of weeks, so I've got some
sense of what you folks are likely to recommend, but I'm curious what
is considered an ideal storage solution if building a database system
from scratch. I just got an exploratory call from my boss, asking
what my preference would

Bruce,
Unfortunately not. The behavior I had was ebbs and flows. On FreeBSD,
I was seeing a lot of kernel wait states in top. So every few minutes,
responsiveness of the db was pretty bad. 8.4.4/amd64 on FreeBSD 7.2

Hi,
One more question about two specifics query behavior: If I add "AND (ip_dst
= x.x.x.x)", it uses another plan and take a much more time. In both of
them, I'm using WHERE clause. Why this behavior?
