Re: : Create table taking time

I did not calculate the IO behavior of the server.

What i noticed for the logs is that, the checkpoints are occurring too
frequently each checkpoint is taking up to minimum 80 - 200+ seconds to
complete write and checkpoint sync is taking 80 - 200+ seconds to sync,
which is i believe IO intensive.

Thanks
