Hi

 

We have an issue where one of the developers ran a large query that hung was filling up the DATA drive very rapidly. From 50% usage to 95% in less than 2hrs.

It created a very large pgsql_tmp size (300GB). To stop the drive filling up we had to kill the process manually using kill -9.

How do we clean up the pgsql_tmp folder? Will Postgres periodically clean it? Ie CHECKPOINT?

Thanks.

 

Regards

Dylan
