All,

Rather that try to figure out why 1.38.8 was running slowly after
upgrading RHEL 3 to RHEL 5 and its newer version of Postgresql, I
upgraded Bacula to 2.0.3. Once I got grant_postgresql_privileges running
with help from the list, this message was reported:

        psql:<stdin>:62: NOTICE:  number of page slots needed (29760) exceeds 
max_fsm_pages (20000)
        HINT:  Consider increasing the configuration parameter "max_fsm_pages" 
to a value over 29760.

I edited /var/lib/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf to set

        max_fsm_pages = 40000

and restarted Postgresql.

A test backup shows that speeds are now comparable to the old
configuration of 1.38.8 on RHEL 3.

Even better, bconsole commands such as getting the director status or
doing queries using sqlquery are now appreciably faster.

Thanks all for your help.

Tod
