Thanks!
Very interesting.
Did you share it with the Postgresql list yet?
I think they would find it very interesting.

Any plans on doing simmilar tests with data that does not fit in memory?
Also could you share what settings were used for postgres? Where any 
defaults changed? Effective memory, shared_buffers, etc... any of them 
adjusted for the machine's memory?
