At the risk of being even more pedantic, let me point out that if you are going to be running your application with multiple users the reverse is even more true, 'If it can't handle multiple user tests then single user tests are kind of a waste of time'. brew == Strange Brew ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Check out my Stock Option Covered Call website http://www.callpix.com and my Musician's Online Database Exchange http://www.TheMode.com == ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
[PERFORM] Thanks Chariot Solutions
Many thanks to Chariot Solutions, http://chariotsolutions.com, for hosting Bruce Momjian giving one of his PostgreSQL seminars outside of Philadelphia, PA yesterday. There were about sixty folks there, one person driving from Toronto and another coming from California (!). I found it very enlightening and learned some new things about PostgreSQL, even if I *did* doze off for a few minutes after lunch when all my energy was concentrated in my stomach. But after I got back home I dreamt about PostgreSQL all night long!!!

Re: [PERFORM] started Data Warehousing
Pablo. > I have a question, I am going to begin a project for the University in > the area of Data Warehousing and I want to use postgres. Do you have > some recommendation to me? Yes. Set up a linux machine if you don't have access to one so you can load postgresql and start learning how postgresql works by playing with it. Even after you get the production database running you can use it for testing (or even the main machine, depending, but it's nice to have a test platform entirely removed from the hot database). And start reading, read the pgsql newsgroups (and not just performance, there are other more basic ones), read the online docs and books, and there are printed books, too. A wealth of information. I'm sure others have more ideas to recommend, too.. brew == Strange Brew ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Check out my Musician's Online Database Exchange (The MODE Pages) http://www.TheMode.com == ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs/FAQ.html
