They are on the same machine.

Sorry for not mentioning this before - after SP2 installation CPU
utilization has dropped almost to zero. Even task manager consumes more
CPU than both BD's. But the HD activity is still quite high. I can send
perfmon log for CPU/Memory/Network/Physical Disk to anyone who
interested. 5 phases: database setup through psql/idle time/my script
works for a couple of minutes/idle/database restored through pg_restore.

No, sure it creates DB connections on the start. TCPView confirms this -
no connection has been made since the start.

I even stopped and disabled the firewall service. Doesn't help much.

Tried that as well. Uninstalled TCPView Pro. Removed QoS from network
connections. Still nothing.
