Some background is in order for the last one. PostgreSQL 9.3 will movefrom SysV shared memory to mmap for its shared memory needs. It turnedout that the switch much hurts its performance on the BSDs. Matthew Dillon was fast to respond with a search for bottlenecks and got the performance up to par with Linux."
