> Durability is a database feature that guarantees the recording of
committed transactions even if the server crashes or loses
power. However, durability adds significant database overhead,
so if your site does not require such a guarantee,
<SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>PostgreSQL</SPAN
> can be configured to run
much faster. The following are configuration changes you can make
to improve performance in such cases. Except as noted below, durability
is still guaranteed in case of a crash of the database software;
only abrupt operating system stoppage creates a risk of data loss
or corruption when these settings are used.

> Place the database cluster's data directory in a memory-backed
file system (i.e. <ACRONYM
CLASS="ACRONYM"
>RAM</ACRONYM
> disk). This eliminates all
database disk I/O, but limits data storage to the amount of
available memory (and perhaps swap).
