[Spacewalk-list] Migration from pgsql to oracle

1. I read that oracle is performing much better in bigger spacewalk
deployment. I have 1600 clients connected to spacewalk and is impossible to
schedule tasks on all hosts. My db team said that pgsql is limited to
single core per connections which means that spacewalk cannot utilize db in
more efficient way. Maybe (I hope) i'm not aware of configuration options
which make this possible ?

We have oracle support so another instance is not a problem for us. I'll
try test export import with db-control.
