How do you check contraints here? Is this enforced with UK/PK?
Running the above loop worked fine for about 12 hours. Each file was taking
about 30 seconds to be processed. About 4 seconds to create the `users` table
and have the CSV data loaded into it and anything between 20 and 30 seconds to
insert the data from `users` into `users_no_dups`.
Do you see anything suspicious in the logs, i.e. something in the realms of
running out of transaction IDs?

Recreating the table now isn't really providing any improvements. I tried
recreating it with a `fillfactor` of `10`, but it was taking too long and too
much space (the table had 300GB with the fillfactor set to 30; with it set to
10 it went up to almost 1TB).
To me it sounds like the UK/PK is getting too much to write. A possible
solution could be to start partitioning the table.

```
ssl = off
shared_buffers = 8GB
work_mem = 12GB
maintenance_work_mem = 12GB
max_stack_depth = 4MB
synchronous_commit = off
wal_writer_flush_after = 128MB
max_wal_size = 32GB
min_wal_size = 80MB
effective_cache_size = 96GB
```
Another suggestion would be to increase the min_wal_size here, but since you
use UNLOGGED tables it does not matter much.
Information about the machine:
```
Processor: 2x Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630L v2 @ 2.40GHz (6 cores each, 12
threads)
RAM: 256GB
Disk1: 2TB SSD SATA-3 Samsung Evo 860
Disk2: 6TB HDD SATA-3 Seagate Exos Enterprise 7200RPM
Disk3: 8TB HDD SATA-3 Seagate Exos Enterprise 7200RPM
Disk1 and Disk2 are configured as a single logical volume.
Just curious: does that mean you mix up SSD + HDD?
Cheers,
Sebastian
