Hi,
we are using luks/dmycrypt to encrypt our pgdata volumes.
On some standby/replication machines we see load peaks up to 15x of the
primary server.
If we remove the dmcrypt/luks and run it on a non-encrypted device this
does not happen.
We have tried to analyze this but could not find where the load comes from.
Using atop, pg_top we do not see any waits, not on cpu and not on I/O,
just the higher load.
We see this on KVM hosts and also on Hardware (HDD, SSD, RAID/Non-RAID)
and also tried to set different powerprofiles in the BIOS.
Do you have any idea here? I am happy to get any information you need to
analyze this problem.
Thanks,
Dennis
