Hi, I have a slow response of my PostgreSQL database 7.4 using this query below on a table with 800000 rows:
select count(*)from tbl; PostgreSQL return result in 28 sec every time. although MS-SQL return result in 0.02 sec every time. My server is a DELL PowerEdge 2600 with bi-processor Xeon at 3.2 Ghz with 3GBytes RAM My PostgreSQL Conf is ********************* log_connections = yes syslog = 2 effective_cache_size = 50000 sort_mem = 10000 max_connections = 200 shared_buffers = 3000 vacuum_mem = 32000 wal_buffers = 8 max_fsm_pages = 2000 max_fsm_relations = 100 Can you tell me is there a way to increase performance ?
