I do see this though in the very first post: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-general/2008-01/msg00143.php Production: Fedora Core 6, postgresql 8.2.5, AMD XP2600, 2 GB mem, two 7200 ide disks with pg_xlog alone in the second disk. New: Fedora 8, postgresql 8.3-beta4, Core Duo 2.33 MHz, 4 GB mem, two 7200 sata disks in Raid 1. On the old machine pg_xlog is on its own disk but on the new machine he is getting random churn on the I/O because he only has the RAID 1 for DATA and pg_xlog. He tested 8.3 on the old box and had similar results. Although, I wonder if he tested 8.3b4 on the old box in the exact disk layout (with xlog on a separate disk). http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-general/2008-01/msg00214.php He only says he built and copied the postgreql.conf.
