The machine in question is a 1GB Ram, AMD 64 with Raid 1 Sata disks.
Non standard parts of my postgresql.conf are as follows:
max_connections=100
shared_buffers=128MB
work_mem=4MB
maintenance_work_mem=256MB
max_fsm_pages=204800
max_fsm_relations=1500
Any tips appreciated.
Pls, show
1) effective_cache_size
2) The query
3) Output of EXPLAIN ANALYZE of query
effective_cache_size is set at 128MB (the default).
A simplified version of the query is as follows
select email_id from email where to_tsquery('default','hannah') @@ fts;
Bitmap Heap Scan on email (cost=12.50..80.25 rows=18 width=8) (actual
time=9073.878..39371.665 rows=6535 loops=1)
Filter: ('''hannah'''::tsquery @@ fts)
-> Bitmap Index Scan on email_fts_index (cost=0.00..12.49 rows=18
width=0) (actual time=9023.036..9023.036 rows=6696 loops=1)
Index Cond: ('''hannah'''::tsquery @@ fts)
Total runtime: 39375.892 ms
The time that this query takes is not the issue, rather it is the impact
that it has on the server - effectively killing it for the 40 seconds
due to the heavy disk access.
