Hi,

I would like to start a little survey who is running postgresql on an 
8way or more machine (Intel, Sparc, AMD no matter). Purpose: find out 
how postgresql runs in high performance areas.

Please fillout:

Machine (Vendor, Product):
Architecture (Intel/Sparc/AMD/IBM):
Processors (Type/Number/GHz):
RAM:
Operating System:
PostgreSQL Version:
Database size (GB):
Disk system:
Type of application:
Your email contact:
Willing to answer questions in this group:
Comments:


Please answer here or to me. I compile the results and feed them back here.

Regards,

Dirk

Hi,

I just got one reply for this survey. Is almost nobody using postgresql 
on 8+ machines?

Regards,

Dirk

My guess is when someone is using PostgreSQL on 8+ machine, she's
in highly competitive (or sensitive) market and either cannot give
company's work details to everyone or simply doesn't want to.

Probably if you asked 'I am thinking about buying 8-way Opteron
box, does PostgreSQL have problems with such hardware' you
would get a response.

But surveys are awfully close to statistics and many people simply
doesn't like them.  (They say that 46.7% of statisticts are just made
up ;-)).

   Regards,
      Dawid

Hi Dawid,

postgresql is open source and we also want it to be used in high 
performance areas. What's wrong with people telling on which machines 
they use it? I don't care about business details but techinal details 
would be quite interesting. In the end it is interesting to know how you 
need to tune postgresql on high end machines and how well they perform 
on the different highend platforms. This is meant to be more a field 
study and not a benchmark. We know that Opteron performs well but what 
are people actually using in high performance areas? Does postgresql run 
on an E10000? Who did it?

Regards,

Dirk
