How closely matched are the parameters of your 7.0 and 7.1 servers? Particularly the -B parameters. Anyway, I'm busy trying to get my server set up with both version to run the tests. I'll get back to you...

I'm using a test machine that is even less powerful than what you are using. However, what I'm interested in is the comparison between 7.0x and 7.1x. Shouldn't the 7.1b4 database be faster? Have you (or anyone else) done this comparison?
Also, I'm not sure why tps is significantly higher when running the default (-t 10) vs say -t 1000, but I can live with that...
Thanks.

With -B 256 -F I'm getting around 70 tps, and I haven't got wonderful hardware: dual 450Mhz PII, 40GB SCSI drive, 320MB RAM, RH Linux 7.0. I presume that these benchmarks are not adjusted statistically to compensate for hardware or anything like that.
pgbench -t 100 -c 5
With
pgbench -t 100 -c 10
I'm getting up to 85 tps, same server settings as above.

Has anyone run pgbench with the latest beta?
I'm seeing ~50 tps with 7.1b4 versus ~100 tps with v7.02 & 7.03 running postgres on FreeBSD v4.0. I'm vacuuming before and after each test run and using -F with postmaster. Originally I thought I had a debug build but what I'm seeing are debug msgs from vacuum. JDBC interface is much slower...
Thanks.
