When the filesystem containing my database fills up, the server repeats
the following log message about as fast as it can log:
Jun 29 23:00:55 src@giraffe postgres: LOG: could not write temporary statistics file "pg_stat_tmp/pgstat.tmp": No
spaceleft on device
Is this an infinite loop or the server just trying a lot of independent
temporary statistics file updates? This server handles about 5 transactions
per minute.
If it's an infinite loop, does anyone have a feeling whether it's recursive
(the act of logging the error stimulates another attempt) or iterative (the
server just can't take no for an answer)?
