Dear postgres users,

Suppose I have two tables of data.

suppose the two table are really similar in dimensions 

suppose they will receive the same number and type of queries.

in tems of performance (velocity of answer) it is better to place the
two tables in the same db or into two different db?

may be it is a stupid question, but....

many many thanks...

 Ivan
