[Cialug] Multicore and multiproc Postgres

Tue Aug 22 07:36:01 CDT 2006

Anyone here familiar with running multicore and/or multiproc Postgres?
If so, how many cores/procs, what OS, and how pesky was the install?
And how did the performance compare to other db's considered?

I heard my dept is looking at an 8 dualcore proc installation for MS SQL
Server 2K5, and the licensing fee for unlimited connections is just
below a cool $100K.  I'd like to at least offer management some info on
a free-as-in-beer solution.

Unfortunately, as shown by the original post, it appears that Google's
mail server is the one on the blacklist.  The best you could do is lobby
directnic to remove sorbs.net from their RBL list.
