Hi, We use postgresql 7.2.1 (actually the Debian binary packet version 7.2.1-2woody2) Our database load has more QUERIES than INSERT/DELETES. But we have a sever problem with the wirting operations. Once in a while (about 3 times a day) one or more INSERTS/DELETES simply go into the "waiting" state, and block the whole database. The only way out is to terminate the client connection (i.e. to abort the blocked INSERT/DELETE query) Further investigation with ps -e -o wchan... showed that the backed process was simply sleeping in "semop". Output of ps: 762 ? S 0:00 /usr/lib/postgresql/bin/postmaster 764 ? S 0:00 postgres: stats buffer process 765 ? S 0:00 postgres: stats collector process 24872 ?
