It might be worth setting "log_autovacuum_min_duration = 0" (either globally, or as a reloption on the relevant tables), and seeing if there seems to be any correlation between autovacuum/autoanalyze activity and the occurrences of poor plan choices. Ok, doing a SET plan_cache_mode=force_custom_plan before the COPY and resetting it after appears to fix the problem. We’re going to run it over the weekend to make sure. We are at it again. I have a DELETE operation that’s taking 48 minutes so far. I had set plan_cache_mode = force_custom_plan for the entire server before this happened, as we started seeing the COPY slowdown again.
