(I am running PostgreSQL 8.2) I have always ran PostgreSQL on Linux in the past, but the company I am currently working for uses Windows on all of their servers. I don't have the luxury right now of running my own benchmarks on the two OSes, but wanted to know if anyone else has done a performance comparison. Is there any significant differences?
