Re: Performance issue with Insert

Hi,

I have already checked all the statements present in the trigger, no one is
taking more then 20 ms.

I am using 8-Processor, Quad-Core Server ,CPU utilization is more then 90-95
% for all. (htop result)

DB has 960 concurrent users.

io : writing 3-4 MB per second or less (iotop result).

Scenario : All insert are waiting for previous insert to complete. Cant
we avoid this situation ?
What is the "max_connections" postgresql support?

Plz help....
