List,
I am experiencing heavy load on my database cluster and DB server
performance degrading over the time.

I have pgbackrest(2.52.1) running for incremental backups to a remote
reposerver and local WAL replication configured to an onprem standalone
instance on another VM in the same local LAN.
archive_mode = on # enables archiving; off, on, or always
# (change requires restart)
# (empty string indicates archive_command
should
# be used)
archive_command = 'pgbackrest --stanza=My_Repo archive-push %p'
*To identify the resource consuming queries I ran and found only one [40
days 17:22:59.029204 | START_REPLICATION 8E ] *and rest all seems normal
.
How come this START_REPLICATION running for 40 days and 17:30 Hrs Is this
normal ?? * Is this due to pgbackrest or WAL replication *to local
VM ?
What may be the issue and how to resolve it ?
Any hints much appreciated.. Please see the below pasted outputs for more
information.
Thank you,
Krishane
Any more tests I need to perform let me know, I can produce those
information also.
postgres=# SELECT pid, now() - query_start AS duration, query, state FROM
pg_stat_activity WHERE state != 'idle' ORDER BY duration DESC LIMIT 10;
pid | duration |
query
| state
