Oh man, that poor guy.  He's got 4 or 5 machines in a cluster, and he's
still not catching up to the one machine postgresql server.

And he's switching because he wants better reliability?

Guess he's never heard of pgpool, slony, mammoth replicator, cjdbc, or a
half dozen other ways to get high reliability with postgresql.

I wonder what version of postgresql he was testing.
