I'm working on an application which performs a lot of inserts in 2 large
tables.
Previously we didn't know about lwlocks, but we're now testing in Amazon RDS
Aurora - PostgreSQL (9.6.3).
In previous load tests, both local servers and classic Amazon RDS, there was
some scalability limit we couldn't find - CPU / memory / IO were all low,
but still there was contention that wasn't visible in PostgreSQL views.
Now with Aurora it shows that most of the sessions are blocking on
LWLock:buffer_content.
I would like some insights, as we have 2 tables with ~35 million rows each,
and they have several indexes (shown below).
This request is a crucial operation for our system, and each application
request must insert on those 2 large tables in a single transaction, plus
some other selects.
I've searched a lot and found nothing on how to mitigate this issue. Just
found that it might be related to inserts.
Any tips?
For reference, here are the descriptions of both tables:
