No intent to shoot anything down, just random thoughts:
effective_cache_size = 20000 (~ 160 MB) should be more adequate for a
256 MB machine than the extremely conservative default of 1000. I
admit that the effect of this change is hard to benchmark. A way too
low (or too high) setting may lead the planner to wrong conclusions.
More parameters affecting the planner:#cpu_tuple_cost = 0.01#cpu_index_tuple_cost = 0.001#cpu_operator_cost = 0.0025
Are these still good defaults? I have no hard facts, but ISTM that
CPU speed is increasing more rapidly than disk access speed.
In postgresql.conf.sample-writeheavy you have:commit_delay = 10000
Is this still needed with "ganged WAL writes"? Tom?
