Where to post a new PostgreSQL utility?

From

Hi everyone,

Have gotten a new PostgreSQL utility together called "pg_autotune" that
load tests using Tatsuo's pgbench code over multiple-iterations,
attempting to determine decent buffer settings for a specified client
load.

It's more a framework for adding stuff to later, but for now it just
works (albeit time consuming).

Where do I post it (here or PATCHES?) because if the code is rugged
enough then it might be useful in contrib?

:-)

Regards and best wishes,

Justin Clift

Just because I'm curious, is *all* new stuff going to Gborg, and is the
existing /contrib going to migrated there?

I'm curious too...

If that is to happen then the profile of gborg would need to be
massively increased. Currenly the only real link on the 'net to gborg
(by searching through
http://www.google.com/search?q=link:gborg.postgresql.org) is from the
User Lounge (link "Related projects") on the PostgreSQL site.

I'd have thought a link on the main left-hand list would be more apt.

And gbord needs a search facility if people are going to be able to
find anything...

That's being worked on in a roundabout kind of way...

Yes, I think your're right. I will suggest it to the relevant people.
