Hi!

I'm sorry I haven't done any research beforehand, but are any such 
materials regarding performance tuning available in the canned form on 
the 'net for me to show to my boss? I believe statements like this will 
greatly promote PostgreSQL if substantiated with concise "executive 
summary" articles and maybe some short technical details for 
administrators. Thank you!

Sergey.
