Since you said earlier you were on PostgreSQL version 9.2, you must
be talking about transparent huge pages. Yeah, be sure those are
configured to be disabled in a way that "sticks" on your OS. When
you get to version 9.4 you will notice that we support huge pages
directly. That would be expected to work without problems even
though TRANSPARENT huge pages are debilitating.
Yep.. you're right, Kevin.
Transparent huge pages...
We do have a script that disables it when the system is rebooted, but that did not work.
Anyway, the problem was solved..
Cheers
