I did actually try to search for topics on multiple cores vs MySQL, but I
wasnt able to find anything of much use. Elsewhere (on Hacker News for
example), I have indeed come across statements that PG scales better on
multiple cores, which are usually offset by claims that MySQL is better.

Google isnt of much use for this either - while MySQL has several resources
talking about  benchmarks/tuning on multi core servers (e.g.
http://dimitrik.free.fr/blog/archives/2010/09/mysql-performance-55-notes.html),
I cant find any such serious discussion on Postgresql

However, what I did find (
http://www.pgcon.org/2008/schedule/events/72.en.html) was titled "*Problems
with PostgreSQL on Multi-core Systems with Multi-Terabyte Data*"
 (interestingly, published by the Postgresql Performance Team @ Sun)

Ergo, my question still stands - maybe my google-fu was bad... why is why I
am asking for help.

Sandeep
