Hello people.
 
I'm installing Postgresql under linux for better performance and i want to know how is the best configuration.
 
My server is a dual pentium3 1ghz/1gb ram/36gb scsi. running only postgresql. My question is:
1. What is the best linux distribuition for better performance?
2. Does exists any compilation options to better performance on this machine?
 
Thanks

LFS (http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/) if you have the time. WARNING: it
is a major undertaking, but for a machine dedicated to one task, where
virtually everything can be well-optimised for the machine, it has major
performance and admin benefits.

Only try it if you have a lot of time and/or already know linux well. If
you have a *lot* of time, you will gain the knowledge as you go. If you
decide to, I'll see you on *that* mailing list.

Also, I recommend slackware as an LFS base.
