<< pgbouncer is more for making connections line up single-file when the line is moving at a very fast clip, say 0.01 second per turn.  If I were trying to make tasks that can each last for hours or days line up and take turns, I don't think pgbouncer would be the way to go.

The recommendation at the time was assuming that write contention was slowing things down and consuming resources, since I can’t stop people from creating big multi-threaded imports. Each import consists of about 50 writes

Neither, it is part of our auditing and maintenance processes. It is not called with any great frequency. The audit report generates rows defining how the a particular  item (an “item” being a particular table/row) was created: it returns the names of the import tables, the row ids, the write operations and any transformation messages that may have been generated – all in the order they occurred.

 

You can imagine how useful this in creating a document describing what happened and why.

 

The same data generated by the report is used to “resurrect” an item. If – for example - our business logic has changed, but the change only affects a small sub-set of our core data, then we perform a “rollback” (a logical cascading delete) on the affected items. Then we create a “rebuild” which is a script that is generated to re-import ONLY the import table rows defined in the audit report.

 

So, this query is not called often, but the fact is that if it takes over 30 seconds to load an item (because the audit report takes so long to prepare the bitmap index scan when passed new query parameters) then it severely restricts how much data we can resurrect at any one time.
