Hi,

From the postgresql.conf, I can see that the shared_buffers is set to 48GB 
which is not small,  it would be possible that the large buffer cache could be 
"dirty", when a checkpoint starts, it would cause a checkpoint I/O spike.

I would like to suggest you about using pgtune to get recommended conf for 
postgresql.

Regards
