Hello,
We are facing very HIGH memory utilization on postgreSQL server and need help.
Mem: 8165696k total, 7943160k used, 222536k free, 282044k buffers
Swap: 8385920k total, 112828k used, 8273092k free, 4793732k cached
What makes you say memory usage is high?
You have ~8gb of memory.
Less than 3gb of that is being used by applications and the OS is using the "spare" 5gb for caching and buffers.
