我的postgresql服务器非常慢。特别是当我在不同的线程中同时执行多个查询时，有时会导致postgresql服务器在5到15秒内无响应。我想知道我是否在postgresql.conf中犯了错误。
我的专用服务器有2个内核和4 GB内存，以及一个标准的SATA-2磁盘。 postgres db（版本8.4）中有6gb数据，同时连接了几百个用户。我正在使用JDBC访问postgress，运行1到10个同时访问数据库的线程。我的服务器是debian lenny。 Cpu不是100％使用，内存也不是。
感谢您提供任何帮助。

# PostgreSQL configuration file
# -----------------------------
#
# This file consists of lines of the form:
#
# name = value
#
# (The "=" is optional.) Whitespace may be used. Comments are introduced with
# "#" anywhere on a line. The complete list of parameter names and allowed
# values can be found in the PostgreSQL documentation.
#
# The commented-out settings shown in this file represent the default values.
# Re-commenting a setting is NOT sufficient to revert it to the default value;
# you need to reload the server.
#
# This file is read on server startup and when the server receives a SIGHUP
# signal. If you edit the file on a running system, you have to SIGHUP the
# server for the changes to take effect, or use "pg_ctl reload". Some
# parameters, which are marked below, require a server shutdown and restart to
# take effect.
#
# Any parameter can also be given as a command-line option to the server, e.g.,
# "postgres -c log_connections=on". Some parameters can be changed at run time
# with the "SET" SQL command.

几百个用户同时连接
max_connections = 100
您使用的是连接器吗？如果是，哪一个，它如何配置？
我正在使用JDBC访问postgress，运行1到10个同时访问数据库的线程。
...或者是Java应用程序有效处理的连接池？如果是这样，10是数据库连接的硬限制吗？
2核和4 gb ram，以及标准SATA-2磁盘
有多少并发查询会导致问题？您没有足够的资源来分享。你应该是limiting active database transactions到大约5。
shared_buffers = 1024MB work_mem = 100MB
由于每个连接可以为每个计划节点分配work_mem个空间，因此不会需要多个并发查询才能完全实现容量。
fsync = off full_page_writes = off
通过这些设置，您告诉PostgreSQL如果操作系统，硬件或VM崩溃，可以丢失数据库中的所有数据 - 您不关心数据库中的数据或者您是否愿意去你最新的已知良好备份。如果您转换这些on并关闭synchronous_commit，您的性能几乎会相同，但您不会冒着操作系统崩溃时不可恢复的数据库损坏的风险;只是当事务提交时，数据实际上可能不会持续很短的时间，通常不到一秒钟。
版本8.4
此后的每个版本都包含了检查点处理方面的改进，这可能会降低您描述的问题类型的频率和严重程度。你应该考虑升级。
