Hi,

We had a power cut lastly and it seems that our PostgreSQL database
suffers from performance since.  For example, a simple query such as
"SELECT MIN(a-primary-key-column) FROM a-table" takes quite a very long
time; actually I gave up before getting the result.

I shutdown and started up the database, and I took at the log file; I
don't see any fatal error:

Where can I check, please?  Is it more likely a hardware problem (the
machine seems ok, no error detected)?

Regards,
