On my single Hard disk test with write cache turned off I see
different results than what Dan sees..
DBT2 50-warehouse, 1hr steady state with shared_buffers 1G,
checkpoint_segments=128 as common settings on 8GB RAM)
(checkpoints were on for all cases) with 8 Core .
FPW off: 3942.25 NOTPM
FPW on: 3613.37 NOTPM
DW on : 3479.15 NOTPM
I retried it with 2 core also and get similar results. So high
evictions does have slighly higher penalty than FPW.
My run somehow did not collect the background writer stats so dont
have that comparison for these runs but have fixed it for the next
runs.
