Re: [HACKERS] pgstat wait timeout
Hi, I Disabled autovacuuming and the warnings stopped logging. After enabling Autovacuuming, the warnings again started logging. -- View this message in context: http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/pgstat-wait-timeout-tp5078125p5444033.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - hackers mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

Re: [HACKERS] pgstat wait timeout
Thanks, i missed that. After doing these changes, following is the observation: 1. The size of the pgstat file is 86KB. Last edited was when i moved the file location to RAMdisk. 2. The issue persists.

Re: [HACKERS] pgstat wait timeout
I have installed RAMdisk and pointed the parameter: #stats_temp_directory = 'B:\pg_stat_tmp' I also tried #stats_temp_directory = 'B:/pg_stat_tmp' But, still there is no file created in the RAM disk. The previous stat file is touched even after the change is made. (I have restarted the service after effecting the change) -- View this message in context: http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/pgstat-wait-timeout-tp5078125p5119436.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - hackers mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
Re: [HACKERS] pgstat wait timeout
>Would this be alleviated by setting stats_temp_dir to point to a ramdisk? I am not aware how to do this. I am using a windows server OS. The conf file has the entry : #stats_temp_directory = 'pg_stat_tmp' What do I change it to?

Re: [HACKERS] pgstat wait timeout
OS: I am using Windows server 2003 Version upgrade: hmm.. Is there any fix/change related to this issue in 9.0.6? If yes, I will upgrade in next scheduled downtime (I am using this as production server)... postgres queries are very occasionly used (a set of calls once in 30 minutes).. so I guess I am not calling my DB component heavily. -- View this message in context: http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/pgstat-wait-timeout-tp5078125p5086379.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - hackers mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
Re: [HACKERS] pgstat wait timeout
Size of pgstat.stat file: 86KB I did not understand the second part. Where do I get "iostat -x 1" message? (Its not present in any file in the pg_log folder) I am using postgres 9.0.1 -- View this message in context: http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/pgstat-wait-timeout-tp5078125p5078391.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - hackers mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
[HACKERS] pgstat wait timeout
Hi, I am having a scenario where I get consistent warnings in the pglog folder: 2011-12-11 00:00:03 JST WARNING: pgstat wait timeout 2011-12-11 00:00:14 JST WARNING: pgstat wait timeout 2011-12-11 00:00:24 JST WARNING: pgstat wait timeout 2011-12-11 00:00:31 JST WARNING: pgstat wait timeout 2011-12-11 00:00:44 JST WARNING: pgstat wait timeout 2011-12-11 00:00:52 JST WARNING: pgstat wait timeout 2011-12-11 00:01:03 JST WARNING: pgstat wait timeout 2011-12-11 00:01:11 JST WARNING: pgstat wait timeout . . . This is impacting database performance. The issue persists even when I use the database minimally. I have tried fine-tuning the Auto-vacuum parameters: Change the parameter autovacuum_vacuum_cost_delay to 40ms ::: Issue is reproduced 4 hours after this change Change the parameter autovacuum_max_workers to 20 ::: I got the warning message 2 times at times 17:20:12 and 17:20:20. After this, no warnings for 5 hours. Then I tried: Change the parameter autovacuum_vacuum_cost_delay to: 60ms, Change the parameter autovacuum_max_workers to: 10::: I got the warning message 2 times at times 17:20:12 and 17:20:20.
