Hi,

We are looking at getting a server for running postgresql. Only
postgresql, a dedicated machine. Since we know FreeBSD very well, we
plan on using it as the OS.

You might want to wait a little until 7.0 or until some more important
bits get MFC'ed to 6.x:

I second this, FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT is frozen so I guess it's ok to use
it, and I use it my production server which really enjoy the C2D E660
and 2 GB ram, with AMD64 arch.
