Greetings

I am inserting a large number of rows, 5,10, 15 million. The python code commits every 5000 inserts. The table has partitioned children.

 

At first, when there were a low number of rows inserted, the inserts would run at a good clip – 30 – 50K inserts per second. Now, after inserting oh say 1.5 Billion rows, the insert rate has dropped to around 5000 inserts per second. I dropped the unique index , rebuilt the other indexes and no change. The instance is 16 vcpu and 64GB ram.

 

I’m perplexed, I can’t see to find any reason for the slow down…

Thanks,

pg
