It is easy to explain why I am wrong; You have run timming tests
and have measurments that disagree with what I wrote. If you do
have such data, good then we can find out the diferences in the
test methods.
I am not so interrrested in theroy but possibly the O/S (linux and
Solaris in my case) buffer and PostgreSQL bufers are not
interchanceable
as they are managed using diferent algorithums and the OS level buffer
is shared with other aplications
