To be rude but honest. If you can't solve that problem you really should
contract with someone to help you with your performance tests because
you are not going to be able to adequately tune PostgreSQL for a proper
test.
That said, the reason you can't find make is that you don't have the
proper development tools installed.
+1 to what Robert said.
