Hi again,
we like to build a data warehouse and i would like to read your thoughts about the hardware we plan to use.
for us the most important thing is performance.
IBM x3655 2 x AMD Opteron QuadCore 2.3 Ghz L2: 2 MB
64 GB of ram
IBM System Storage EXP3000
with 7 x 146 GB 15k SAS HDDs (8 MB Cache)
Do you see any problems with the L2-Cache or the HDD-Cache? Are they important for pg?
Have you any suggestions for the RAID-Controller?
We plan to set up the hole thing on gentoo. A good idea?
Thank you very much for you'r replies.
Jasmin
