Hi Team,

 

I am on Solaris-9 and Pgsql-7.4.2. This database is running on the live production server. It takes more than 5 minutes to update one single query. This is very horrible and completely not acceptable on the live. We had scheduled Vacuum on daily basis at low traffic time of the day. Due to this, the client application is getting time out and the particular transaction is getting failed.

 

We observed numbers of postmaster processes are running in the sleeping mode. We also observed some of the processes are running with the previous dates. The maximum connections configures is 100, but I can see number of transactions around 200 at some time of the day(May be peak time of transactions). Pls advice me to get rid of this.
