Re: Anyone running PostgreSQL on Sun Solaris?

A while ago we had a client running PostgreSQL on a Quad v440, and the
performance was horrific. There are some known issues with PostgreSQL
and solaris. AFAIK there was a kernel patch to alleviate some of the
issues, but i'm unsure of the state of this as its been sometime since
i've had any experience with PostgreSQL and solaris.
