Another thing that you could use here is pg_buffercache which offers a way to look at the Postgres shared buffer contents in real-time: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/pgbuffercache.html As Jeff says, pg_prewarm is a good tool for such cases to avoid any kind of warmup period when a server starts.. -- Michael
