<gryzman@gmail.com> move postgresql to another disc if possible.
I have 2 disks thats the best Samsung has to offer :
First splitted on
C:100GB ( Windows Server drive with postgreSQL installation )
E: 800GB with PostgreSQL data.
I: Pictures
Do you suggest that I move the PostgreSQL data to another disk or all of it? Including the installation?
You have really slow
discs if that happen,
By that you mean, that writes occur if one has to slow disks?
or perhaps it does loads of seq scans, because
of lack of indices.
Its possible that its the lack of indices, but they are pretty many. Most of the fetching thats being done is through a primary key. However when using search, there is a1-2 JOINS in each search. Does perhaps a JOIN force a writing to the disk?
All in all, it seems like your server is to low spec for what you are
trying to do.
Not sure about that Grzegorz, its a pretty powerful computer :) and I don't have that much data and traffic yet..
Normally, should the writes really be more than the reads?
