Hello,

Since Amazon has added new high I/O instance types and EBS volumes, anyone
has done some benchmark of PostgreSQL on them ?

I will be testing my app soon, but was curious to know if others have done
some tests so I can compare / have a rough idea to what to expect. Looking
on Google, I found an article about MySQL (

but nothing about PostgresSQL.

Thanks !

Sébastien
