Hi

Sometimes simple sql's like this takes a very long time  "select count(*) from information_schema.tables;"

Other sql's not including system tables may work ok but login also takes a very long time. 

The CPU load on the server is around 25%. There is no iowait.


This happens typically when we are running many functions in parallel creating many temp tables and unlogged tables I think.

Here is a slow one:

and here is fast one :

Here are my settings (the server has around 256 GB og memory) :

max_connections = 500

work_mem = 20MB

effective_cache_size = 96GB 

effective_io_concurrency = 256 

shared_buffers = 96GB

temp_buffers = 80MB


Any hints ?


Thanks .


Lars
