I tried to generate a log file that could present the above situation, but was not sucessfully! This case happens when I wa using version 7.4 os PostgreSQL. Using 8.2.5, the problem (with 1 client and 1 connection) appear not to happen anymore! I've just tried with more than one client (1 connection per client) and the problem turn to appear. But now this make sense (considering the comments submitted to this topic).
Well, I will think about how can I calculate the % of time the executor passing executing queries along a period of time.
I would be grateful if someone could help me to resolve this...
Many Thanks!!!
Camilo
