X-Enigmail-Version: 1.4.4 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Pg-Spam-Score: -2.3 (--) X-Archive-Number: 201210/94 X-Sequence-Number: 40210 Hi. What stripe width size are you recommending for postgresql 9.2? Default settings are often 128k, is that OK, or should I go 8k? And what is the best practice with filesystem, to align it to stripe width + stripe unit size, or performance doesn't benefit from it at all? Thank you :)
