Let me make the problem a step more frustrating ::-). All of the
queries and updates to this database are extremely simple and very
predictable. The database is a backend for DNS.
Inserts are of the form (updates are analogous):
insert into dns_records (zone, host, data, ... )
values ('domain.com', 'www', '1.2.3.4', ... );
Queries are of the form:
select ttl, type, mx_priority, case
when lower(type)='txt' then
concat('\"', data, '\"')
when lower(type) = 'soa' then
concat_ws(' ', data, resp_person, serial, refresh, retry,
expire, minimum)
else data end from dns_records where
zone = 'domain.com' and host = 'www';
We've fixed a few data formatting issues that made the select queries
slow under certain circumstances, but we're still running into
occasional performance problems running the inserts/updates.
There are no joins, subqueries, transactions, or any of the usual muck
that complicates a performance issue.
