CopyManager.copyOut stuck in socket read

Hi Team,

We are using a java application that does something like “COPY (select xyz from abc ) TO filename.csv.gz” using JDBC to postgres 9.3.11 server.

Java version: openjdk version "1.8.0_151"

Postgres server: PostgreSQL 9.3.11 on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (GCC) 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-4), 64-bit

JDBC driver: postgresql-8.4-701.jdbc3.jar

·       The problem is that the COPY is just running there forever even though the table it is referring to has <10 columns with ~50 rows.

·       Thread dump indicates copyOut is stuck in socket read. There is no enforcement of a timeout in application nor we have added a statement_timeout.

·       We want to understand why it is stuck as it has been running for more than 3 days now.  Inspecting the target csv.gz file, it has no content in it yet.

·       The CPU utilization of the pid representing the query ( captured from pg_stat_activity ) shows close to 100%.  Is this some known issue?

·       I know we are in old version but would like to know if this is a bug that’s already seen? Looking at release notes, I’m not able to find out.
