We have a database running on a 4 processor machine. As time goes by the IO gets worse and worse peeking at about 200% as the machine loads up.
The weird thing is that if we restart postgres it’s fine for hours but over time it goes bad again. (CPU usage graph here HYPERLINK "http://www.flickr.com/photos/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/502596262/"http://www.flickr.com/p hotos/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/502596262/ ) You can clearly see where the restart happens in the IO area This is Postgres 8.1.4 64bit. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks Ralph -- Internal Virus Database is out-of-date. Checked by AVG Free Edition. Version: 7.5.432 / Virus Database: 268.15.9/573 - Release Date: 5/12/2006 4:07 p.m.
