Keep an eye on pg_stat_activity and pg_locks to see if any lock
contention is going on.

I have a process that updates ~ 1500 rows in a table once a second. Every 5
minutes (almost exactly) the update takes ~ 15 seconds (normally < 1). I
have run htop/top on the machine during this time period and do not see
anything unusual. I am running postgres 8.1.8 on a FC6 box.
Any type of internal accounting/logging set to 5 minute intervals by default
within postgres? Right now I am looking at pg_stats activity to see if
there is anything there but so far have had no luck.
TIA
