That with a distinct lack of heavy IO says cpu bound to me... I just pulled up the linux man page and it says that r is the number of processes waiting to run. This isn't entirely correct. A BSD or Solaris man page more correctly identifies it as the number of processes running OR waiting to run and that if this number exceeds the number of cores then the number by which is exceeds it is how big of a queue there is. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
