1. extensions
shared_preload_libraries =
'orafce,pgaudit,pg_cron,pg_stat_statements,set_user'
2. psql can not login now ,it hang there too, so can not check anything from
pg_stats_* views
3. one main app user and 2 schemas ,no long running transactions .
4. we use /pgdata , it's on xfs , lvm/vg RHEL8.4 ,it's a shared storage, no use
root filesystem.
/dev/mapper/pgdatavg-pgdatalv 500G 230G 271G 46% /pgdata
/dev/mapper/pgdatavg-pgarchivelv 190G 1.5G 189G 1% /pgarchive
/dev/mapper/pgdatavg-pgwallv 100G 34G 67G 34% /pgwal

What settings have you set ?
https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Server_Configuration
What extensions do you have loaded? \dx
Send the output of SELECT * FROM pg_stat_activity either as an attachment or in
\x mode?
What is your data dir ? Is it on the VM's root filesystem or something else ?
Show the output of "mount". Are there any kernel messages in /var/log/messages
or `dmesg` ?
How many relations are in your schema ?
Are you using temp tables ?
Long-running transactions ?
