Have you considered a simple load balancing set-up? You don't mention how
you generate the web pages - hopefully not a scripting language if
performance matters! If, for instance, your application is written in
Java/JSPs then you could set up several servers running Tomcat and
PostgreSQL and load balance them from an Apache web server with mod_jk.
