Thats fine, but you do understand that nice (linux) will have *no* effect on I/O? For any non-trivial table (that can't be held entirely in memory), re-nice will almost certainly have no effect. -Barry In article <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Gaetano Mendola wrote: > Tom Lane wrote: > > Gaetano Mendola

Re: [GENERAL] Hardware recommendations

Gentoo, in my opinion, makes a poor production platform. Others have had success with it, but I would recommend 1 of the big 3 'stable' linux platforms out there: * RHES * SUSE * Debian As far as hardware goes, IBM has some nice x86 intro servers that fit into that price catagory. -Barry John
