I'm not into the BSD-vs-Linux thing, but before you consider switching you might
want to think about the fact that there is a reason why Redhat EL costs money,
and if you've paied for it then you might want to get something back. Their
kernels are excellent, so better learn how to tune them for what postgresql
needs from the OS. There's plenty of information out there for tuning postgresql
on linux, and you should probably get some good answers from redhat too.
Best of luck to you.

| Dual Pentium III 1 GHz
| 1.5 GB ram
| 30 GB ATA 7200 HDD.
| pg 7.4.2
|
| I installed freebsd 5.2.1 (It is my first try on it).
| and ran the same db and pg setup.
| So I see 30% slower freebsd box compared to linux RH.
|
| My question:
| exists any special setups into freebsd to get it running faster?
| Also any good docs about configuring freebsd for postgresql will helpfull .
