I think with your help guys I'll do it!
I'm working on it!
I'll work on theses issues:
we have space for more ram(we use 2 gigs on possibility of 3 gigs)
iowait is very high 98% --> look like postgresql wait for io access
raid5 -->raid0 if i'm right raid5 use 4 writes(parity,data, etc) for each
write on disk
use more transactions (we have a lot of insert/update without transaction).
cpu look like not running very hard
*php is not running on the same machine
*redhat enterprise 3.0 ES
*the version of postgresql is 7.3.4(using RHDB from redhat)
*pg_autovacuum running at 12 and 24 hour each day

A furthur thought or two:
- you are *sure* that it is Postgres that is slow? (could be Php...or your
machine could be out of some resource - see next 2 points)
- is your machine running out of cpu or memory?
- is your machine seeing huge io transfers or long io waits?
- are you running Php on this machine as well as Postgres?
- what os (and what release) are you running? (guessing Linux but...)
As an aside, they always say this but: Postgres 7.4 generally performs
better
than 7.3...so an upgrade could be worth it - *after* you have
solved/identified
the other issues.
best wishes
