Hi,
 
We've a fedora core 3 box with PostgreSQL 8.0.
 
There is some performance problems with the server and I discovered with vmstat tool that there is some process writing a lot of information in the disk subsystem.
 
I stopped the database and even so vmstat showed the same rates of disk writes.
 
I could I discover who is sending so many data to the disks?
 
Thanks in advance,
 
Reimer
