Good Morning

I am new to postgres and have been asked to look at a server where we truncate a table then load data.

The CPU has started to hit 100% usage during this process.


This could be a good sign! - if you are using COPY into a table with no indexes and your machine has a good IO subsystem, then typically cpu becomes the limiting factor. However as Jim suggested, more details would be good, otherwise we are just guessing!

Cheers
