Re: 7.1 performance

I had to run a script which did few thousand queries on 7.1 few times and
after that even the queries that are done entirely based on indexes were
also _VERY_ slow. But I did a "vacuumdb dbname" as postgres user and after
that thigs were back to normal - very fast.

But I could _NOT_ reproduce this.

Does the number of WAL files have to do anything with this?
