We're seeing slow application performance on a PostgreSQL 9.1 server which appears to be relatively lightly loaded. Some graphs from pgstatview are at http://www2.uptimeforce.com/pgstatview/e35ba4e7db0842a1b9cf2e10a4c03d91/ These cover approximately 40 minutes, during which there was some activity from a web application and two bulk loads in process.
The machine running the bulk loads (perl scripts) is also running at about 70% idle with very little iowait. That seems to suggest network latency to me.
Am I missing something in the server stats that would indicate a problem? If not, where should I look next?
