ipdevpoll once we migrate PostgreSQL to a dedicated server. I can post our findings here once we get there, but that probably won't be until August, as I'll be offline most of July.
That would still be very much appreciated.
Making a note of that, then :)
I just just found that note in my TODO-list - sorry about the late update, I hope this finds you well!
We migrated PostgreSQL off the heavily-loaded NAV server and onto a dedicated server early in September and have been running them like that ever since.
As expected, the results were very good. Neither server appears in our daily load graphs (though the main NAV server seems to have some loadavg peaks of 3.0 a few times a week).
Also, we upgraded all our production systems from Linux 2.6 to Linux 3.2 a few weeks later, and this seems to have had a massive improvement on the load numbers of all our production servers.
All in all, we are quite satisifed.
