Hello,

I've inherited a web service on a Windows server that connects to a Postgres database. There is a "SELECT * FROM" query below that runs a long time and appears to happen whenever there is a web service update. I'd like to eliminate or limit it but I have to find it first. I have pgBadger set up and logging turned up which is how I found the query.

The developer says the query is not in his code and gave me the source code. It's pasqual. I see the other queries but I don't see the select * either in the code. He also added logging of the queries and the SELECT * FROM is missing. Is it possible another query creates the select * such as the two queries before it shown below?

These are all part of the same connection [2308] and I can see the connection and disconnect each time. Can I safely assume this is all the same connection and must be coming from the same web service code/program?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Andrew
