Mladen, Thank you for your reply. I apologize for not including the system specifics in my initial post. We are running Postgres 8.3.7 on a Sun M5000 with 2 x quad core CPUs (16 threads) running Solaris 10. When I run an SQL to create new tables and indexes is when Postgres consumes all CPU and impacts other users on the server. I've attached the sar data at the time of the run- here's a snip-it below. Thanks! Deb **************************************************** Here, note the run queue, the left column. That is the number of processes waiting to run. 97 processes waiting to run atany time with only eight CPU cores looks very busy. root@core2 # sar -q 5 500 SunOS core2 5.10 Generic_142900-11 sun4u 06/17/2010 12:01:50 runq-sz %runocc swpq-sz %swpocc 12:01:55 1.8 80 0.0 0 12:02:00 1.0 20 0.0 0 12:02:05 1.0 20 0.0 0 12:02:10 0.0 0 0.0 0 12:02:15 0.0 0 0.0 0 12:02:21 3.3 50 0.0 0 12:02:26 1.0 20 0.0 0 12:02:31 1.0 60 0.0 0 12:02:36 1.0 20 0.0 0 12:02:42 27.0 50 0.0 0 12:02:49 32.8 83 0.0 0 12:02:55 76.0 100 0.0 0 12:03:01 66.1 100 0.0 0 12:03:07 43.8 100 0.0 0 12:03:13 52.0 100 0.0 0 12:03:19 91.2 100 0.0 0 12:03:26 97.8 83 0.0 0 12:03:33 63.7 100 0.0 0 12:03:39 67.4 100 0.0 0 12:03:47 41.5 100 0.0 0 12:03:53 82.0 83 0.0 0 12:03:59 88.7 100 0.0 0 12:04:06 87.7 50 0.0 0 12:04:12 41.3 100 0.0 0 12:04:17 94.3 50 0.0 0 12:04:22 1.0 20 0.0 0 12:04:27 3.3 60 0.0 0 12:04:32 1.0 20 0.0 0 12:04:38 0.0 0 0.0 0 -----Original Message----- From: Mladen Gogala [mailto:mladen.gogala@vmsinfo.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 23, 2010 5:50 AM To: Deborah Fuentes Cc: pgsql-novice@postgresql.org Subject: Re: [NOVICE] CPU usage when building a schema Deborah Fuentes wrote: > > Hello, > > > > I'm new to Postgres so I apologize in advance for the simple question.... > > > > Why is it when I'm building an empty schema does Postgres consume all > the CPU resources?

If Linux, did you do "strace" to see what is going on? You can even compile PgSQL with the "-g" flag and use gprof to find out where the time is spent. Furthermore, what do you mean by "building an empty schema"? Are we talking about "create schema" command or something else? I tried creating an empty schema and it wasn't even visible on CPU: [mgogala@medo ~]$ psql Timing is on. psql (8.4.4) Type "help" for help. mgogala=# create schema test; CREATE SCHEMA Time: 192.082 ms mgogala=# drop schema test; DROP SCHEMA Time: 59.451 ms mgogala=# Simultaneously, in another window I did this: [mgogala@medo ~]$ sar -u 3 15 Linux 2.6.18-194.3.1.el5.centos.plusPAE (medo) 06/23/2010 08:45:43 AM CPU %user %nice %system %iowait %steal %idle 08:45:46 AM all 3.00 0.00 0.83 1.50 0.00 94.68 08:45:49 AM all 2.17 0.00 0.67 0.00 0.00 97.16 08:45:52 AM all 2.16 0.00 1.00 0.00 0.00 96.84 08:45:55 AM all 2.50 0.00 1.50 3.00 0.00 93.01 08:45:58 AM all 2.34 0.00 0.33 0.00 0.00 97.33 08:46:01 AM all 0.67 0.00 0.50 1.00 0.00 97.83 [mgogala@medo ~]$ It didn't even make a ripple.
