Thread: Performance of SELECT directly and from application

Performance of SELECT directly and from application

From

Hi,

we use PostgreSQL 12.3.1 and have a little bit trouble with performance.
When the statement comes from the application (wildfly) duration is 
about 24982.819 ms. When I do the statement directly with psql duration 
is 967.773 ms.
Duration from Wildfly is known becaue we use in postgresql.conf 
"log_min_duration_statement = 5000". There I see, that from application 
are 3 variables used.
Is there any idea why this can happen or a hint to solve this issue?

Kind regards,
Jessica

Try using "auto_explain" to get EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS) output for the slow
execution.  The comparison of these two execution plans would be instructive.

Does the application set any parameters?  Does it use a cursor?

Thanks for this advice.

We found out, that application use the following paramters:
set max_parallel_workers_per_gather to 4;
set min_parallel_table_scan_size = '1MB';
set parallel_setup_cost = 10;
set parallel_tuple_cost = 0.001;

Now they are using standardparamteers and they have restart Wildfly with 
deleting tmp and -surprize- as fast as before.

I'm not allowed to post the plan until it is anonymized.

Until now thanks for helping.

Kind regards, Jessica

You can use https://explain.depesz.com/ to share your plan which has an option to automatically obfuscate the table
