With RT3 3.6.5 and PG 8.1.9, I'm seeing newish tickets open in a little 
more than two seconds.  I don't have numbers for MySQL 5, but I recall 
it being less than half a second.  It was much longer than that with our 
slightly older rt3 on MySQL 5, and also much longer before we'd done 
vacuum analyse on postgres. ;)

Yes, having seen the system behave much faster, I do think that >2 
seconds is slow.

After enabling the log, this is the single slowest query that I saw.

2007-11-27 09:39:53 PST rt3 - LOG:  duration: 450.262 ms  statement: 
SELECT main.* FROM ( SELECT main.id FROM GroupMembers main JOIN Groups 
Groups_1  ON ( Groups_1.id = main.GroupId )  WHERE (Groups_1.Domain = 
'SystemInternal' OR Groups_1.Domain = 'UserDefined') AND (main.MemberId 
= '169133')   GROUP BY main.id  ORDER BY min(Groups_1.Domain) ASC, 
min(Groups_1.Name) ASC  ) distinctquery, GroupMembers main WHERE 
(main.id = distinctquery.id)

Where would I look for "index patches"?
