Forum OpenACS Development: OpenACS 5.1.x and Postgres 8.1.x ???

Hello!

We have some problems with big context switching
in our DB (Postgres 7) server at high loads.

(see
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-performance/2005-11/msg00444.php
)

Postgres 8 can solucionate part of the problem.
We like to know if anybody are using Postgres 8 with this
OpenACS release. I have read that I must do one dump / restore
but are there any other problem? Must I patch any file?

Regards,
Agustin

My understanding is that 8.1.x will not work with OpenACS because of the way they have changed things. There is an incopatible change that will break tree_sortkey .

However, I am curious if you noticed a difference after you turned off HyperThreading?
