I have a production PostGres v8.2 database on luinx and a test PostGres V9.0
database on a test linux server
I am going to do migration but do not want to do that before making sure the
performance of the new test Postgres 9.0 database performance is as good as
the current production Postgres 8.2

My question is:

Is there a script that I can run on Postgres V8.2 and PostGres 9.0 that
allows me test performance and make comparisons

Thanks guys
