Hi, for csv output, we have a 750 Mo logfile. But on another site, we have an logfile of 1,6 Go and logger process was using more than 3 Go of RAM.
Even with our configuration (log collector, silent mode and csv/stderr), we launched potsgresql daemon like this : pg_ctl -l ${HOME}/pgsql/logs/postgres.log start so we have three logfiles : postgresql.log (always empty) postgresql-YYYY-MM-DD.csv (big file if set to csvlog) postgresql-YYYY-MM-DD.log (always empty if set to csvlog) Thanks. 2009/11/19 Tom Lane <t...@sss.pgh.pa.us>: > "Poindessous Thomas" <tho...@poindessous.com> writes: >> we have a weird bug.
