Hi everyone, I am running a test with 1 thread calling a stored procedure in an endless loop. The stored procedure inserts 1000 records in a table that does not have indexes or constraints. In the log file I see that the time to execute the procedure sometimes it jumps from 100 ms to 700 ms. The auto-vacuum is turned off. Can anyone give me some details about this? Thanks a lot, 17221%2008-04-01 09:22:53 ESTLOG: statement: select * from testinsert(100001001,1000) 17221%2008-04-01 09:22:53 ESTLOG: duration: 111.654 ms 17223%2008-04-01 09:22:53 ESTLOG: statement: select * from testinsert(100001001,1000) 17223%2008-04-01 09:22:54 ESTLOG: duration: 710.426 ms __________________________________________________________________ Ask a question on any topic and get answers from real people.
