Ok. I finally have a stand alone test case that does not show that 8.1 is worse
than 7.4. It shows the opposite quite nicely ;-). In tests I'm running, 7.4.1
bogs down immediately and never recovers. 8.1 behaves itself for about 20
minutes before it goes out to lunch. So, in those terms, it is worse as it
looks fine at the start, but then gets progressively worse, but overall, it's
much better.
I have a Perl script, a Perl module and a 1Mb database (from pg_dump -F c). Are
you interested at this time in receiving this? I plan on taking it home and
running against my AMD system to see what it does, but that will be against 8.0
if I remember correctly, maybe 8.03. An upgrade to RC2 might occur when RC2
comes out, unless there would be great benefit on running my tests against
8.1RC1.
Cheers,
