I have some "log table purging" processes I'd like to put in place; it
would be really slick to be able to get some statistics from the
system as to how busy the DB has been in the last little while.
The nice, adaptive algorithm:
- Loop forever
- Once a minute, evaluate how busy things seem, giving some metric X
-> If X is "high" then purge 10 elderly tuples from table log_table
-> If X is "moderate" then purge 100 elderly tuples from table
log_table
-> If X is "low" then purge 1000 elderly tuples from table
log_table
The trouble is in measuring some form of "X."
Some reasonable approximations might include:
- How much disk I/O was recorded in the last 60 seconds?
- How many application transactions (e.g. - invoices or such) were
issued in the last 60 seconds (monitoring a sequence could be
good enough).
