Hi Martin, While I analyze the data, let me ask you if it is possible to perform another check (similar in a way to disabling data-index like you do) Can you switch to MongoDB persistence and check if the same degradation that is there for postgres remains? I do not know if this is feasible but will certainly indicate the problem is on the postgres storage layer and I do not have a clear prediction of what we will see when doing this switch.
