Hello,

I'd like to know how well can PostgreSQL scalate to accomodate growth, that is, how many cpus it can handle, if it can perform parallel queries/inserts/etc. the way Oracle/Sybase can.

Thanks!
Gabriel.

so far our data are still ok with pgsql... weve got almost 50-70 users accessing the database...

I don't think it's oin the new version
but when you look in the TODO list for the 7.3
then you see that there should be multiple backends

Maybe this is ine step towwards this parallel queries.
