Are you running the latest version of phpBB or an older one? I know that
at first it was a kinda "let's just get it running" when they supported
postgresql, but looking through their code, it certainly looks aware of
postgresql and it's transacational nature.

If the whole thing is slow, maybe you have a wholly untuned postgresql
database or a poor connection to it, or some other problem getting in the
way?

My little celeron running PHP4.2.x and hitting a remote postgresql 7.2.x
server seems quite peppy running it.

So, when you say slow, how slow do you mean, like 5 or 10 seconds between
mouse clicks for the screen to come up, or an extra second here or there?
