Other questions: - did you ever use VACUUM FULL or CLUSTER on pg_authid (or just on all tables)? - Did you have any failovers? - Do you use logical replication?
1) VACUUM FULL was issued after the first time the error occurred, and a couple of times later. CLUSTER was never run.
2) Several failovers tests were perfomed before the cluster was moved to production. However, before the move, the whole cluster was wiped, including all the application and monitoring users. After the db was moved to production, a couple of users were added without any problem.
3) No, even if the replication level is set to logical in postgresql.conf, we only use streaming replication.
