If it's volatile then it can't be used for an index condition.

A volatile function has may return a different result for each row;
think of the random() or nextval() functions for example. You wouldn't
want them to return the same value for each row returned.

It's volatile, but it will always return an integer.

It's very consistent with what we've seen before - the hardware RAID

I have a table with 37000 rows, an integer column, and an index on that
column. I've got a function that returns an integer. When I do a select
where I restrict that column to being equal to a static number, explain
tells me the index will be used. When I do the same thing but use the
function
This isn't all that surprising. The main weaknesses of RAID-5 are poor
write performance and stupid hardware controllers that make the write
performance even worse than it needs to be. Your numbers bear that out.
Reads off RAID-5 are usually pretty good.
Your 'dd' test is going to be a little mi

As I have understood, there is alot of tuning using both postgres.conf and
analyzing queries to make the values of postgres.conf fit my needs, system
and hardware. This is where I need some help. I have looked into
postgres.conf , and seen the tunings. But I'm still not sure what I should

Hello.
Unfortunately, I'm leaving for my vacation now, gone 3 weeks. When I'm
back I'll run benchmarksql and bonnie++ and give the results here.
The spec I will be using:
Prolite DL585
2 x AMD/Opteron 64-bit 2,6GHZ
8G DDR PC3200
4 x 150G SCSI in SmartArray 5i
Running Gentoo 2006.0 AMD_64 Hardene
Hi!thanks for the quick helpi managed to reduce the response time from seemingly taking infinity to a tolerable level, which is by the way a huge improvement. What helped was the functional index on date_trunc('day',yourfieldhere) as Scott suggested.

The Smart Array 5i is a terrible performer on Linux. I would be
surprised if you exceed the performance of a single hard drive with this
controller when doing I/O from disk. Since your database working set is
larger than memory on
