Hi,

just and update here.
It seems that the newer libraries perform worse when we use multiple worker 
threads. I don't know why and I don't have time to investigate it any further. 
We'll stay with the old 3.7.16.2 for now.

Thank you for your assistance.

Hi,

also nope. I start with an empty (completely new) database. Then inserted 100K 
what we call "objects" and the same amount of "events". Inserting "events" 
takes place in one big commit. As soon as events are detected, the processing 
starts. I measure time since beginning of the first process till the end of the 
last. It is quite a lot of transactions, selects, and updates. Slightly less 
inserts and deletions.

As a rule we do a VACUUM at each startup but clients expect to run this thing 
for months (if not years) without restart.

What about fragmentation of the database itself? Does running VACUUM on the 
database affect performance?
