Help: System requirements for postgresql 7.4.1

Juan Carlos Diez

Hello, I'm evaluating that version and I can't find system requirements for it. Could anybody please help me with these questions?

1.1. Hardware:
1.1.1. C.P.U. (how many processors, what speed)
1.1.2. Ram. (minimum and desired)
1.1.3. Disk.
1.1.4. Networking.
1.1.5. Scalability

1.2. Software:
1.2.1. OS. (wich versions and patches are required for linux and solaris)
1.2.2. Required software packages.

Thank you very much.

Best regards,

JCD.

It depends mostly on how much data you want ot store and how fast you want
to get at it. I've run postgres on old 486's with a few gig of disk space
and almost no ram. It wasn't fast but it was good for the hardware it was
on.

There is very little in the way of "required" packages since compiling from
source will customise it to your whatever your system has available.

It's available for every version of linux, no idea about solaris but probably.
I don't think it requires particular versions of anything.

Perhaps you need to be more specific?
