Re: stress tests problems

Have run "explain" on your queries to check whether your indexes are
being used. You could also check out the stats view as well to get an
overall picture of what's going on during the test as far as sequential
versus index scans, buffer reads  versus disks reads,etc.  Check out for
example, pg_stat_all_tables, pg_stat_io_tables, etc..

Subject: [NOVICE] stress tests problems


HI there! I'm doing some stress test in my db with 100.000 users (rows)
in
one of my tables. I'm using indexes,vacuum, and other stuff but the db
is
too slow. Is there any other mechanism to optimize the db? tks in
advance
