Re: Low CPU Usage

I have found the reason!!! I begin to see line by line postgresql.conf and saw ssl = true.
I have disabled ssl and then I have restarted the server and that's all. It's 4 or 5 times faster than the old server.
I don't understand why PgAdmin is connecting using ssl if I have leave this field empty!!!
Debian by default installs Postgres with ssl enabled.
Thank you very much all of you to help me to find the causes.
Regards
Agustin

If I compare this against my laptop (SATA disk too) is really better, but I don't know if this result is a good one or not.
I don't
know where to continue looking for the cause of the problem, I think there is a bug or something missconfigured with Debian 4.0r1 and Postgres.
I unppluged the server from the network with the same results. I have the server mapped as localhost in PgAdmin III, there shouldn't be network traffic and there isn't (monitoring the network interface). I'm really lost with this weird behaviour.
I really apreciate your help
Regards
Agustin

The
little test hdparm does is not exactly a robust hard drive benchmark.
If you want to rule out hard drive transfer speed issues, take at look at
the tests suggested at
http://www.westnet.com/~gsmith/content/postgresql/pg-disktesting.htm and
see how your results compare to the single SATA disk example I give there.
