Nick, can you describe the system you run the DB tests on? Do you have any cpu idle time stats and hopefully some context switch rate stats?
Yeah, it is dbt3-pgsql on OSDL's 8-way STP machines. I think they're
PIII Xeons with 2MB L2 cache.
I had been having some difficulty running them recently, but I might
have just worked out what the problem was, so hopefully I can benchmark
the patchset I just sent to Andrew (plus fixes from Ingo, etc).
