Hello

On my serwer Linux Fedora, HP DL360G3 with 2x3.06 GHz 4GB RAM working 
postgresql 7.4.6. Cpu utilization is about 40-50% but system process 
queue is long - about 6 task. Do you have nay sugestion/solution?

Regards
Marek

  We're going to need a lot more information than that to diagnose what
  is going on.  Do you have any functions or queries that will need to
  use a large amount of CPU?  

  In general I would suggest upgrading to the latest Fedora and moving
  to PostgreSQL 8.x.  Doing this will get you some extra performance,
  but will probably not entirely solve your problem.

High run queue (loadavg) with low cpu usage means you are IO bound.
Either change some queries around to generate less IO, or add more  
disks.
