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.
