Hi,
Is there a command to Insert a record If It does not exists and a update if
It exists?
I do not want to do a select before a insert or update.
I mean the postgres should test if a record exist before insert and if It
exist then the postgres must do an update instead an insert.
Thanks,

I cannot scale beyond that value and the funny thing, is that none of the
servers is swapping, or heavy loaded, neither postgres nor apache are
refusing connexions.
Hearing a story like this (throughput hits a hard limit, but
hardware doesn't appear to be 100% utilized), I'd suspect

One beast will be apache, and the other will be postgres.
