was mentioned in a performance sub-group posting. Give it a read.
Back? It means, so far as I can see, that PG is toast. It will fall
down to being the cheap and dirty alternative to MySql, which even
has, at least two, multi-threaded engines. DB2 switched it's *nix
engine to threads from processes with release 9.5. Oracle claims it
for releases going back to 7 (I haven't tried to determine which parts
or applications; Larry has bought so many tchochtkes over the
years...). SQL Server is threaded.
Given that cpu's are breeding threads faster than cores,
PG will fall into irrelevance.
