Re: Compaq iPAQ and Postgresql

Hi David,

I am running PostgreSQL on a Cyrix 686 - Linux box with only 32MB of RAM.
(For a while even with 16 MB).
But there is no real data ... less than 100 rows in two or three tables.

AFAIK there should be no problem with low RAM ... but performance will slow
down.
There should be some hints on tuning postgres at the tech docs. Maybe these
would be helpfull to reduce RAM-usage (but normally you'll find hint, how to
increase it ;-).

Andre
