This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the file HISTORY. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.

processes of a pgbench run, when we are using -j > 1 and are emulating threads via fork(). Otherwise the children all inherit the same random sequence state and produce the same random-number sequence. In the threaded case the different threads will share one RNG state, so they will produce different subsets of one sequence, which is maybe more correlated than a purist would like but will not be "the same". So we leave that case alone. First noticed by Takahiro Itagaki, and is also part of the explanation for the pgbench misbehavior recently reported by Jaime Casanova.
