They claim to have run postgresql with the options -o -F, what exactly would
that do?  Does the -F get interpreted as an argument to -o? If so then it
wouldn't have had the expected results.  Would be interesting to contact them
and give them a 5 minute review of thier postgresql conf vs. thier hardware
and have them rerun the tests.
