Thread: Speed in V8.0

Speed in V8.0

From
"Thomas Wegner"
Date:
Hello, i have a problem between V7.4.3 Cygwin and
V8.0RC2 W2K. I have 2 systems:

1. Production Machine
    - Dual P4 3000MHz
    - 2 GB RAM
    - W2K
    - PostgreSQL 7.4.3 under Cygwin
    - i connect to it over a DSL Line
2. Develop Machine
    - P4 1800MHz
    - 760 MB RAM
    - PostgreSQL Native Windows
    - local connection 100MB/FD

Both systems use the default postgresql.conf. Now the problem.
I have an (unoptimized, dynamic) query wich was execute on the
production machine over DSL in 2 seconds and on my develop
machine, connected over local LAN, in 119 seconds!

Whats this? I can not post the query details here public, its a commercial
project. Any first idea? I execute on both machine the same query with
the same database design!

There could be many reasons, but maybe first you should look at the amount
of RAM available?  If the tables fit in RAM on the production server but not
on the dev server, then that will easily defeat the improvement due to using
the native DB version.

Why don't you install cygwin on the dev box and do the comparison using the
same hardware?

Ok, i installed the 7.4.3 on the dev machine under
Cygwin and the was 4 times slower than the V8.
They need 394 seconds. Whats wrong with my dev
machine. There was enough free memory available.
