I have a situation where an increase in volume of inserts into the
main transaction table causes a huge slowdown. The table has lots of
indexes and foreign keys and a trigger.
Clearly, something is causing a resource contention issue, but here's
my main question:
I have log_lock_waits = on and deadlock_timeout = 250ms. Is there
any way I could have delays of tens of seconds caused by a write
conflict in a table accessed by a trigger that would not result in the
wait being logged?
Thanks!
