Yeah, 12.7 members per multixact on average is a lot, unless you have 12 processes concurrently locking the same tuples, all the time (although that is possible). My guess is that this is related to subtransactions (either explicit SAVEPOINTs in your SQL code, or EXCEPTION blocks in plpgsql functions). -- Álvaro Herrera http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
