My impression is IPC on sun has higher initial latency than linux. But given 
that you also ran the tests with multiple connections and results were of 
similar pattern, I can't help to conclude that postgresql has to find a way to 
have faste IPC on solaris.

I know I will be flamed for repeatedly making this suggestion. But what does 
tests with sparc linux on same machine yield?
