A few months ago, there was a brief discussion about the convenience of porting a threaded version of postgres. I was wondering which is its status.
Pointing for its convenience I must say that multiprocess code does not work fine on ccNUMA systems. Shared memory is placed on a node and backends from another node must access remotely. OS is prepared for load balancing on multithreaded code, but not for multiprocess.
Thanks and regards
