On our production server, I can insert 5000 tuples in 2100 ms.

Single Xeon 2.6 Ghz
2 Gigs ram
3ware RAID 5 SATA drives array, 3 drives only :-((
PG 8.0 - fsync off

I do think inserting 5000 tuples in a second (i.e 5000 insert transactions, no bulk load) can be reached with well a configured SCSI RAID 10 array.

Anyway it was a MISTAKE in my former description of the project : (sorry for this)

        -  we need 5000 inserts per MINUTE

My question remain :

        Is pgcluster worth giving a try and can it be trusted for in a production environnement ?
        Will it be possible to get a sort of real-time application ?


Thanks for all your comments.
Benjamin.

Just for kicks I did a local test on a desktop machine (single CPU,
single IDE drive) using COPY from STDIN for a set of integers in via a
single transaction, no indexes.

1572864 tuples were loaded in 13715.613ms, which is approx 115k rows per
second.

Okay, no checkpoints and I didn't cross an index boundary, but I also
haven't tuned the config file beyond bumping up the buffers.

Lets try again with more data this time.

31Million tuples were loaded in approx 279 seconds, or approx 112k rows
per second.

I'd say we're there.

TIP 9: the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your
     joining column's datatypes do not match
