Re: Best way to load test a postgresql server - Mailing list pgsql-performance

Disclaimer : I'm very much a newbie here!

But I am on the path in my new job to figure this stuff out as well,
and went to PG Con here in Ottawa 2 weeks ago and attended quite a few
lectures on this topic.  Have a look at :

And in particular "Database Hardware Benchmarking" by Greg Smith
and
"Visualizing Postgres" by Michael Glaesmann
"Performance Whack-a-Mole" by Josh Berkus
