This test is not a real life testing, it's is specifically designed to emphasize the high memory usage issue of PostgreSQL backend process we encountered. 2. The tests in the dotest file uses pgbench's feature to simulate 20 concurrent clients sending random queries, which will make the host memory usage climb even faster; eventually all 20 concurrent PostgreSQL process will all use 1.5 GB (30GB in total). To do the same tests as in the original post, we can run pgbench memoryusagetest -c 1 -j 1 -T180 -f test.sql Samuel -- View this message in context: http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/PostgreSQL-backend-process-high-memory-usage-issue-tp4289407p4291173.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - general mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
