I think this paper was mentioned before, did you read it?... "An Analysis of Linux Scalability to Many Cores"? <http://pdos.csail.mit.edu/papers/linux:osdi10.pdf>; ABSTRACT. "This paper analyzes the scalability of seven system applications (Exim, memcached, Apache, PostgreSQL, gmake, Psearchy, and MapReduce) running on Linux on a 48- core computer." The paper is about Linux, but it also focus on some changes that can be made to PostgreSQL to achieve better concurrency. -- Luis Neves
