Hi,
I am trying to tune my libpq program for insert performance.
When I tried inserting 1M rows into a table with a Primary Key, it took almost
62 seconds.
After adding a composite index of 2 columns, the performance degrades to 125
seconds.
I am using COPY to insert all data in 1 transaction.
the table definition is
CREATE TABLE ABC
(
event integer,
innodeid character varying(80),
innodename character varying(80),
sourceid character varying(300),
intime timestamp(3) without time zone,
outnodeid character varying(80),
outnodename character varying(80),
destinationid character varying(300),
outtime timestamp(3) without time zone,
bytes integer,
cdrs integer,
tableindex integer NOT NULL,
noofsubfilesinfile integer,
recordsequenceintegerlist character varying(1000),
CONSTRAINT tableindex_pkey PRIMARY KEY (tableindex)
)
the index definition is
CREATE INDEX "PK_AT2"
ON ABC
USING btree
(event, tableindex)
TABLESPACE sample;
Any tip to increase the insert performance in this case?
It would also be helpful if someone can send comprehensive libpq programming
guide for PG 9.x. Online doc of libpq is not much helpful for a newbie like me.
Best Regards,
Divakar

This sounds a lot like the bottleneck I was hitting. What Linux kernel
version are you running?
If it's 2.6.33 or later, see:

Sorry, I assumed you were running Linux. But still it could be the
same problem as I had.
Be careful changing your wal_sync_method, as it has the potential to
corrupt your database. I have no experience with Solaris.
For what it's worth, Jignesh Shah recommends using
wal_sync_method=fsync on Solaris:

Indexing twice the same column is useless. (perhaps move your PK to

If you create or truncate table then copy to it, you should create
index after the copy order.

why do you say that?
these are not the same indexes and they serve different purposes.

Given that tableindex is the PK column, I really like to now the usage
pattern for having it indexed twice.

May be a query that is filtering based on these 2 columns?

Without seeing your config its hard to suggest anything here. Did you do basic
tuning of your pg installation?
wal_buffers, shared_buffers, checkpoint_segments, maintenance_work_mem are
likely most relevant for that specific case.

Either thats not true or you cargo culted loads of your config from a
significantly older pg version.
Things like:
#bgwriter_delay = 200 # 10-10000 milliseconds between rounds
bgwriter_lru_percent = 0 # 0-100% of LRU buffers scanned/round
#bgwriter_lru_maxpages = 5 # 0-1000 buffers max written/round
#bgwriter_all_percent = 0.333 # 0-100% of all buffers scanned/round
bgwriter_all_maxpages = 0 # 0-1000 buffers max written/round
make me very suspicious.
As I said, I would check the variables I referenced in my first post...

Do you mean these parameters have been removed starting 9.X?
As I see on
http://www.network-theory.co.uk/docs/postgresql/vol3/BackgroundWriter.html
,these parameters were added starting from 8.0 right?
Best Regards,
Divakar

Either thats not true or you cargo culted loads of your config from a
significantly older pg version.
Things like:
#bgwriter_delay = 200 # 10-10000 milliseconds between rounds
bgwriter_lru_percent = 0 # 0-100% of LRU buffers scanned/round
#bgwriter_lru_maxpages = 5 # 0-1000 buffers max written/round
#bgwriter_all_percent = 0.333 # 0-100% of all buffers scanned/round
bgwriter_all_maxpages = 0 # 0-1000 buffers max written/round
make me very suspicious.
As I said, I would check the variables I referenced in my first post...

No, I mean setting to 0 is a bit of a strange value in many situations.
And you have comments like:
#max_fsm_pages = 20000 # min max_fsm_relations*16, 6 bytes each
#max_fsm_relations = 1000 # min 100, ~70 bytes each
Which reference config options which do not exist anymore. And you have
shared_buffers = 81920
Which indicates that you started from 8.1/8.2 or so...
