- “anytime you get a new piece of hardware you should benchmark it!” greg smith #pgcon #
- @fuzzychef i don’t claim that. again, i think we should watch, learn and be prepared to solve these same problems. #
- @fuzzychef and wrt community involvement, postgres has done things right that other projects now emulate. #
- @brampitoyo happy birthday 🙂 #
- “Have a 7200 RPM drive — 120 commits per minute is the speed of light as far as commits are concerned!” greg smith #pgcon #
- Why does your computer get slower the more you’re using it? Because you’re filling up your disk and starting to use the slower part #pgcon #

- feeling a little like @turoczy today. making coffee before today’s first conference call. #

- i get being happy the laptop fits in my ‘tote’,but pick a testimonial from ‘zombiekllr’ or ‘death2joy’. ‘cherrydoll’ is a bit much. #della #
