Re: [ADMIN] High replication lag - Stream Replication

Hi Shreeyansh,

Thank you for your help.

The lag is not occurring in the recording of the archive in production, nor in sending to StandBy. The lag is occurring in the archive application in StandBy. And this slowness increases with running queries in the StandBy database.

The process of recovering is consuming little CPU, and little I / O.

postgres: startup process   recovering 0000000100001B4300000006  

This parameter log_min_duration_statement should be changed on the StandBy server?

Good afternoon,

I have two servers hosted on Azure with PostgreSQL 9.6 databases. One database is production, the other is standby.

For replication I use stream replication between servers. However the application of the archives in the standby database is slow, always generating replication lag.

The replication lag increases considerably when queries are performed on the StandBy database. I wonder if there is any setting that can be made to improve this performance.

Hi Marcelo Kruger,

From server configuration details provided, looks like a heavy trans DB & more logging enabled which might be resulting more write act on Master and Slave.

At our first glance, we see log_min_duration_statement is set to 0 which might be writing all the queries into the log resulting heavy writing activity that maybe cause for replication lag.

Hope this helps you.
