Hello. I'm hoping someone has seen this before.
We are trying to use Postgres Plus v9.1.3 as the Persistence Manager in
Jackrabbit (Apache JCR) clustering
(http://wiki.apache.org/jackrabbit/Clustering).
Whenever the JCR is under load, the ws_bundle TOAST table in the
repository schema, grows out of control !
Some of my team members maintain that this problem doesn't occur with
MySQL, but I would rather stay with Postgres if possible...
I don't really know anything about jackrabbit but generally this problem
presents when you have a lot of transactions that are idle. Meaning, you
have transactions that are just open, doing nothing. This will present a
problem with routine maintenance.
Under load you can check your process list to see if you have long
running transactions that are idle ( idle in transaction ). If you do,
you have a code problem not a postgres problem and it is presenting
itself through bloat.
Note: IDLE is fine. It is specifically IDLE IN TRANSACTION that is a
problem.
Sincerely,
Joshua D. Drake
Thanks.
