Hello,
 
I am working with a PostgreSQL Database and I want to change the Filesystem to ZFS.
 
Does someone have experience with PostgreSQL and its Performance with ZFS? Are the current write options for PostgreSQL suitable for ZFS?
 
Do I need to finetune Postgres with the settings for ZFS?
Like finetuning of...
- fsync
- wal_sync_method
 
Thanks if someone can help me on this.
 
Cheers Thomas

I'm running on ZFS on a lightly loaded FreeBSD 7 box, and it's fine.

 

I did give ZFS the hint with recordsize=8K on the data directory/fs, but
nothing else. 

 

(other than the usual caveats with ZFS on FreeBSD (I'm on amd64)).

Hello  all,

 

I am working with a PostgreSQL Database and I want to change the Filesystem
to ZFS.

 

Does someone have experience with PostgreSQL and its Performance with ZFS?
Are the current write options for PostgreSQL suitable for ZFS?

 

Do I need to finetune Postgres with the settings for ZFS?
