It looks like that not only vacuum causes our problems. vacuum_cost
seems to lower vacuum impact but we are still noticing slow queries "storm".
We are logging queries that takes >2000ms to process.
And there is quiet periods and then suddenly 30+ slow queries appears in
log within the same second. What else could cause such behaviour? WAL log
switch? One WAL file seems to last <1 minute.
And also in slow queries log only function call is shown. Maybe it is
possible
to get exact query which slows everything down in the serverlog?
