Re: [PERFORM] Need more IOPS? This should get you drooling... (5xnvme drives)

Note also - these disks are close to the performance of memory from a few generations ago (e.g. >10GB/second bulk transfers) They also have bigger/faster versions of the drives, 1.2TB each. I suspect that 5 of those would feel somewhat similar to having 6TB of memory in your db server ... :-)

This looks great when you want in-memory (something like unlogged tables) and you also want replication. (meaning, I don't know of an alternative to get replication with unlogged than to just get faster drives + logged tables?) On Thu, Jun 4, 2015 at 1:23 PM, Graeme B. Bell wrote: > > Images/dat

I previously mentioned on the list that nvme drives are going to be a very big thing this year for DB performance. This video shows what happens if you get an 'enthusiast'-class motherboard and 5 of the 400GB intel 750 drives. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hE8Vg1qPSw Total transfer speed: 10
