There is not possibility to use another database. It's the best option I
have seen. We have been working in postgres in last 3 years, and this is
the first problem I have seen. (The database is working in a large
website, 6.000 visits per day in a dedicated server)

Any other idea?

If I were you I wouldn't believe any performance recommendations from
someone who can't find their caps-lock key or spell "you".

The fact is, on any meaningful benchmark current versions of PostgreSQL
are on par with other databases. Any benchmark that shows PostgreSQL to
be 'slow' is almost certain to be very old and/or does a very poor job
of reflecting how client-server databases are normally used. The one
caveat is that PostgreSQL is often overkill for single user embedded
database type apps.
