Re: [ic] Performance of mysql versus postgressql



Try starting postmaster like this instead of with standard defaults.

/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -B 1000 -o "-S 2000"

Bumping up shared buffer cache and sort blocks tends to help with Postgres
performance.

Also be aware that Postgres' strength lies in scalability as you load your
server. MySQL is quite likely to be faster under single-user or light loads.
