Hi Richard, thank you for your apreciated answers!!!

Well, do you care whether your data is consistent or
not? If not, you
don't need transactions.

I don't require transaction because the query aren't
complex and update a single tuple (in SELECT
transactions are useless)

You'll find inserts/updates with lots of users is
where PostgreSQL works
well compared to other systems.

Uhhmm.. this is interesting...

Thx, now I read it and test an hardware tuned
configuration... I read that is not very simple... :O

Another question:
- why postgres release aren't already configured
(hardware tuning)? isn't possible configure it during
installation?
- why postgres use a new process for every query ?
(mySQL, if I'm not wrong, use threads... I think its
faster)
- why connection time is slower? (compared to mySQL)?
- why postgres require analyze? (mySQL, if I'm not
wrong, don't require it)
Yours answers will be very apreciated! Thx
