    Postgres Performance -- page size

    Hi,

    I am trying to tuning up the performance of PSQL. I have tried
    changing the cache size. I found that the default page size if 8k, I
    am just wondering has any one know, if page size if biger the better
    or smaller the better, what is a good number of page size? My OS is
    red hat 8, and the OS page size is 4K. So should I change PSQL page
    size to 4k or to 16K, 32K?

    Thanks,

    Richard

    default effective_cache _size is 1000 * 8KB - is this what you mean?
    According to the postgresql.conf guide, you can increase it to about 25%
    of available memory. There's some new documentation on configuring the
    database at

    and it is easy to follow. Check it out.
