Hi,

I have questions about Linux Write cache sizing:

1) /proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio : current value (default)  20
2) /proc/sys/vm/dirty_background_ratio: current value (default)  10

I am using Ubuntu 12.04 (8GB RAM) and PostgreSQL 9.2.1, what values of these kernel ratios should be set for better
PostgreSQLdatabase performance?  

Thanks
ac
