I'm running postgresql 8.0 under WindowsXP for a development box (the

Using a PHP connection to it for a simple web app, if I leave the app
alone for a bit (about 20 seconds I'd say) and do something that
requires a query the next page load is slow, not 20 seconds slow, but
3-5 seconds.... but as long as I stay active the page reloads are
instantaneous.
Is there anything I can do about this, or should I just wait to see how
it performs on my production server before I worry too much?
Since you don't say what's causing it, difficult to say what the problem
is. Might it just be caching, does your development box have a lot of
memory free to cache disk blocks?
Otherwise, it could be almost anything. You'll have to run some
timing/traces on the various elements of your setup (php/webserver/pg).
