The query is (unfortunately) generated by Doctrine 2 (Symfony 2).
We can’t change the query easily.
This is my config :
max_connections = 80
shared_buffers = 15GB
work_mem = 384MB
maintenance_work_mem = 1GB
#temp_buffers = 8MB
#temp_file_limit = -1
effective_cache_size = 44GB
If I put a temp_file_limit …Are all my queries (who have to write on disk) will
crash ?
As you can see… I have 64 gb of Ram, but less than 3 Gb is used !
ben@bdd:/home/benjamin# free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 64456 64141 315 15726 53 61761
-/+ buffers/cache: 2326 62130
Swap: 1021 63 958
Thanks guys for your help :)
