Hi,
Had a recent conversation with a tech from this company called FUSION-IO.
They sell
io cards designed to replace conventional disks. The cards can be up to 3
TB in size and apparently
are installed in closer proximity to the CPU than the disks are. They claim
performance boosts several times better than the spinning disks.

Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with this company and these
cards. We're currently at postgres 8.3.11.

Any insights / recommendations appreciated. thank you,
