I am considering a setup such as this:
- At least dual cpu (possibly with 2 cores each)
- 4GB of RAM
- 2 disk RAID 1 array for root disk
- 4 disk RAID 1+0 array for PGDATA
- 2 disk RAID 1 array for pg_xlog
Does anyone know a vendor that might be able provide such setup?
Wouldn't it be preferable to put WAL on a multi-disk RAID 10 if you
had the opportunity? This gives you the redundancy of RAID 1 but
approaches the performance of RAID 0, especially as you add disks to
the array. In benchmarking, I've seen consistent success with this
approach.
