Currently 7.4 (what comes with Debian Sarge). I have run my program on
8.0 but not since I have added MySQL support. I should run the tests on
the newer versions of both DBs (using v4.1 for MySQL which is also
mature at this point).

As others mentioned though, so far the most likely explanation is the
'fsync' being enabled on PostgreSQL.

Thanks for the reply!
