Hi,

I have an application that replicates data from an Oracle database for
postgresql. The flow goes as follows:

oracle.table1 -> AppSincronizador -> postgresql.table1 -> Trigger (upd,
ins, del) -> postgresql.table2

I'm having situations where the data volume is large that the changes that
should be in the final table are not found, getting the tables in
postgresql nosync. Well, the application makes a single transaction and
makes commits every 1000 records.

It is as if the triggers disabled, when manually do the operation is
performed. Is there a BUG or situation where the postgresql disable these
triggers?

So Version: CentOS 6.5
PostgreSQL 9.3.5
Oracle: 11G

I found this POST that explain once situation.

AFTER triggers are more expensive than BEFORE triggers because They must be
queued up Until the statement finishes doing its work, Then executed. They
are not spilled to disk if the queue gets big (at least in 9.4 and below,
may change in future) are huge queues AFTER trigger can cause memory
available to overrun, Resulting in the statement aborting.

PS. Right now I'm not interested in the performance, as this take care
later, but the question that there are random operations that do not
complete for the final table.

Thanks!
