 Postgres 8 vs Postgres 7.4/cygwin I'm currently trying to make a decision on whether to use the Cygwin port of Postgres 7.4 or Postgres 8.0 for a windows installation. Can someone provide some comparison info from a performance point of view? I was thinking that the Cygwin port has the overhead of the translation layer, but 8.0 is a newer product and may still have performance issue. Can anyone comment on this? Thanks for the help.

Well, the performance issues of the cygwin-based releases are the stuff of legend ;-). New product or no, this is really a no-brainer. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to majordomo@postgresql.org so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly |
