Just to be clear - I was describing the current situation in our production.
We were running pgbench on different Ununtu versions today. I don’t have 12.04 setup at the moment, but I do have
12.10,which seems to be performing about the same as 12.04 in our tests with pgbench.
Running pgbench with 8 jobs and 32 clients resulted in load average of about 15 and TPS was 51350.
Question - how many cores does your server have? Ours has 8 cores.
Thanks,
Dan

So I'm running a pgbench. However, I don't really have anything to compare the stats I'm seeing. CPU usage and load
averagewas high (load 7.9), but that was on -j 8 -c 32, with a TPS of 8500.
What numbers are you seeing, exactly?
