I'm a recent Drupal user with postgres.
What I've noticed on drupal-6.4 with Ubuntu 8.04 is that the default
postgresql.conf has:
ssl=true
and since drupal doesn't allow connecting to pgsql with unix socket
paths [1], what you get by default is probably TCP + SSL encryption.
A crude test that just connects and disconnect to a local pg server
appears to me to be 18 times faster when SSL is off.
So you might want to check if setting ssl to false makes a difference
for your test.
[1] A patch has been posted here: http://drupal.org/node/26836 , but it
seems to have gotten nowhere. The comments about pg_connect() are
depressingly lame, apparently nobody had a clue how unix socket files
should be specified, including the contributor of the patch!
