Thread: What filesystem to use for postgres?

What filesystem to use for postgres?

Hello.

Is there any doc or wiki page that describes what filesystems that are
recomended to  use (OS is Linux) for PostgreSQL?
Information about  filesystems options/mount options   and how well
they work with different RAID setups is also of interest.

Wow ... I did this a LONG time ago, so the results need to be taken
with a grain of "that code has assuredly changed since that was done".

Greetings,

This wiki entry might be of interest to you:

I don't know how up to date these benchmarks are though.
