The pgstattuple data shows that the tables are essentially the same, the only difference being the dead tuples, as expected, on the production table. The TOAST size information shows approximately a doubling in size of the TOASTed data on the new machine. By all accounts compression or the lack thereof would be the culprit. At this point I am at a loss for another explanation. One more request for information. What is the data being stored in the table? > > Yours truly, > -at -- Adrian Klaver adrian.klaver@xxxxxxxxx -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
