Hmmmmm..... now that's interesting. Stats collector IS accumulating
quite a bit of runtime..... me thinks its time to go grab 8.2.4.

Its GENERAL performance that just bites - the system is obviously
out of
CPU, but what I can't get a handle on is WHY. It does not appear to be
accumulating large amounts of runtime in processes I can catch, but
the load
average is quite high.
8.2.3 has the 'stats collector bug' (fixed in 8.2.4) which increased
load in high concurrency conditions. on a client's machine after
patching the postmaster load drop from the 4-5 range to 1-2 range on a
500 tps server. maybe this is biting you? symptoms are high load avg
and high cpu usage of stats collector process.
