"Performs best" is pretty elusive. On Solaris 10, for example, fdatasync does best on pgbench on x86, but opendatasync does best on DBT2 on Sparc. I'm not certain we can really determine this with any accuracy. -- --Josh Josh Berkus PostgreSQL @ Sun San Francisco ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
