Resolving Index Bloat

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Howdy,

 

Enviroment:

 

Postgres 8.4.14

Linux

 

We have a problem with index bloat on a couple of our tables even though we have applied more aggressive autovac/analyze settings in the schema:

 

ALTER TABLE billingitemrating SET (autovacuum_vacuum_scale_factor=0.001, autovacuum_analyze_scale_factor=0.0001);

ALTER TABLE importitem SET (autovacuum_vacuum_scale_factor=0.001, autovacuum_analyze_scale_factor=0.0001);

 

pg_stat_all_tables confirms the tables are being auto-vac’d.

 

This query shows the index bloat:

 

(postgres@[local]:5432) [smile] > SELECT "relation",

pg_size_pretty(size) as orig_size,

pg_size_pretty(pg_relation_size(C.oid)) new_size,

pg_size_pretty(pg_relation_size(C.oid) - size) as pretty_diff,

round((pg_relation_size(C.oid))::numeric / size * 100.0) || '%' as increase

FROM pg_class C

LEFT JOIN pg_namespace N ON (N.oid = C.relnamespace)

join tablesizes_20121113_1500 on (relation = nspname || '.' || relname)

left join pg_tablespace t on (c.reltablespace = t.oid)

WHERE nspname NOT IN ('pg_catalog', 'information_schema')

and size <> 0

order by pg_relation_size(C.oid) - size desc limit 20;

                     relation                     | orig_size | new_size | pretty_diff | increase

Any ideas on how to resolve?
