Hello
I have pg_autovacuum running with the arguments:
pg_autovacuum -D -s 120 -v 10000
the database is postgresql 8.0.0
Sometimes load average on server raises to 20 and it is almost impossible to
login via SSH
When I'm logging in finally, I see there is cpu usage: 6% and iowait 95%
ps ax | grep post gives me
postgres: postgres db [local] VACUUM
Is there some solution to avoid such cases?
