Richard,
In addition to "top" below, you'll probably find "vmstat 5" useful.
Thank you.
During this query run (65 sec), vmstat 5 shows big values in bi,cs and wa

PFC,
thank you.
OK so vmstat says you are IO-bound, this seems logical if the same plan
has widely varying timings...
Let's look at the usual suspects :
- how many dead rows in your tables ? are your tables data, or bloat ?

Just the most important points:
1) "dok" table contains 1235086 row versions in 171641 pages (with 8kB
pages this means 1.4GB MB of data), but there are 1834279 unused item
pointers (i.e. about 60% of the space is wasted)

Richard,
Thank you.
Try "SELECT count(*) FROM pg_shdepend".
This query returns 3625 and takes 35 seconds to run.
If it's not a million rows, then the table is bloated. Try (as postgres
or some other db superuser) "vacuum full pg_shdepend" and a "reindex
pg_shdepend".

Your table is horribly bloated.
You must use VACUUM FULL + REINDEX (as superuser) on it, however

it better than linux software RAID ?

No.
Are you really using vacuum_cost_delay=2000? If so, therein lies your
problem. That's a silly value to use for that variable. Useful values
are in the 20-40 range
Alvaro,

are in the 20-40 range probably, or maybe 10-100 being extremely
generous.
Thank you.
My 8.1.4 postgresql.conf does not contain such option. So

1. vacuum_cost_delay does not affect vacuum full
2. vacuum full is always blocking, regardless of settings
So I gather you're not doing any vacuuming, eh?

Alvaro,
1. vacuum_cost_delay does not affect vacuum full
2. vacuum full is always blocking, regardless of settings
So only way is to disable other database acces if vacuum full is required.

This does not really mean that autovacuum has done anything in the

VACUUM FULL;

Are all those command required or can something leaved out ?

If Autovacuum was working, and your tables still got very bloated, it may be
because your free space map is not configured large enough.
What is your value for max_fsm_pages?
The effect of having max_fsm_pages or max_fsm_relations too small is bloating
of tables and indexes.
