Hi Bruce,

I believe in the future that anyone doing serious benchmark tests before
large-scale implementation will indeed be testing things like this.
There will also be people/companies out there who will specialise in
"tuning" PostgreSQL systems and they will definitely test stuff like
this... different variations, different database structures, different
OS's, etc.

Regards and best wishes,

Justin Clift
