Hi All,

We are using solaris 10 x86/AMD Opteron and postgresql
8.2 on SunFire X2100 , however performance is very
slow in contrast to linux debian in the same platform.
Is this normal?

Thanks & Regards
Mahi

There are some significant differences between how Solaris caches database 
files in both of its major filesystems (UFS and ZFS) compared to how Linux 
handles caching.  Linux is much more aggressive in using lots of memory 
effectively for database caching compared to an untuned Solaris 10.

I'd recommend the just published talk at 
http://blogs.sun.com/jkshah/entry/postgresql_east_2008_talk_best for an 
introduction to the details; the information at pages 8 and 9 there I 
found particularly informative.
