The memory is 32GB and the entire database is just 22GB. Even "vmstat 1" does not show any disk activity. I was not able to isolate the performance numbers since I have observed this only on the production box where the number of requests keep increasing as the box gets loaded. But a query that takes 1sec normally is taking more than 10secs (not sure whether it got the same number of CPU cycles). Is there a way to find that? -Sushant. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
