As to benchmarking...
Please be sure to read up on the postgresql.conf settings - the default
settings are designed to get the server to start on a reasonably wide
range of platforms. It is assumed that the DBA will update these
settings as appropriate for the platform and workload in use. Failure to
do so will have serious performance implications.
Also be sure you are familiar with VACUUM and ANALYZE and the effect
they have on performance.
Cheers,
Steve
