Hello,
I have a customer that experience a strange behaviour related to statictics. Threre is a vacuum analyze planned during the night. The morning, 1 day out of 2, there are some extremely slow queries. Those queries lasts more than 5 minutes (never waited more and cancelled them) whereas when everything is OK they last less than 300ms. In order to resolve this i have to execute a least one analyze, sometimes more. My Configuration: Windows PostgreSQL 8.4.8 default_statistics_target = 100 In addition to an increase for shared_buffers, work_mem, ..., i changed the default_statistics_target to 500 with no effect. It was even worse as i never managed to get rid of the slow queries after running many analyze. So i fell back to default_statistics_target=100 in order to get rid of those slow queries. I have no idea of what i can do to solve this issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cordialement, *Ghislain ROUVIGNAC* Ingénieur R&D g...@sylob.com 7 rue Marcel Dassault - Z.A.
