Anyone has any experience doing analytics with postgres. In particular if
10K rpm drives are good enough vs using 15K rpm, over 24 drives. Price
difference is $3,000.
Rarely ever have more than 2 or 3 connections to the machine.
So far from what I have seen throughput is more important than TPS for the
queries we do. Usually we end up doing sequential scans to do
summaries/aggregates.
