Fwd: Memory usage after upgrade to 9.2.4 - Mailing list pgsql-general

> 2) What are the hardware specs for the machine?

32GB of RAM, 6 cores. I don't know which linux distribution they run.

The interesting part is they have a lot of tables due to a partitioned
schema. In total there's ~9500 tables.

> 3) Is it still in test mode or in production?

It's in production for a long time and so far it was running fine, until
the upgrade to 9.2.4.

> 4) You seem to imply that in test mode everything worked alright, is
> that the case?

It was working fine in the production (exactly the same workload) for a
long time (few months at least).

> 5) In either case, test/production, what is being done in the session(s)?

Simple selects, mostly index scans, nothing complex or time consuming.

There's not a particular query that crashes, it's rather about a
combination of queries.

> 6) Is there anything in the Postgres logs that might shed light?

I do have a log with the memory context info printed after the OOM
killed the session - see it attached.
