Hello folks!
I am having a complex query slowing over time increasing in duration. If
anyone has a few cycles that they could lend a hand or just point me in the
right direction with this – I would surely appreciate it! Fairly beefy Linux
server with Postgres 12 (latest) – this particular query has been getting
slower over time & seemingly slowing everything else down. The server is
dedicated entirely to this particular database. Let me know if I can provide
any additional information!! Thanks in advance!
Here’s my background – Linux RHEL 8 – PostgreSQL 12.17. –
MemTotal: 263216840 kB
MemFree: 3728224 kB
MemAvailable: 197186864 kB
Buffers: 6704 kB
Cached: 204995024 kB
SwapCached: 19244 kB
free -m
total used free shared buff/cache available
Mem: 257047 51860 3722 10718 201464 192644
Swap: 4095 855 3240
Here are a few of the settings in our postgres server:
max_connections = 300 # (change requires restart)
shared_buffers = 10GB
temp_buffers = 24MB
work_mem = 2GB
maintenance_work_mem = 1GB
most everything else is set to the default.
The query is complex with several joins:
