Обсуждение: Problems with PostGreSQL and Windows 2003
Hello,
I'm having serious peformance problems with PostGreSQL and Windows Server 2003
Enterprise Edition. The PostgreSQL Server don't starts if I set the shared
buffers high than
1GB. All my programs can use only 3 GB of RAM and I have 8GB of RAM.
When I try to execute a query in a table about 4 milion registers, my
application crashes with an error memory message.
The configuration:
PostGreSQL 8.2.5
O.S: Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition
Service Pack 2
Computer:
dual quad core Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5345 @ 2.33GHz
8GB of RAM
Physical Address Extension
3 HDs in RAID-5
My boot.ini:
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Windows Server 2003, Enterprise"
/fastdetect /PAE /NoExecute=OptOut /3GB
PostGreSQL.conf:
shared_buffers = 1024MB # min 128kB or max_connections*16kB
# (change requires restart)
temp_buffers = 32MB # min 800kB
#max_prepared_transactions = 5 # can be 0 or more
# (change requires restart)
# Note: increasing max_prepared_transactions costs ~600 bytes of shared memory

In a complex query, each sort or hash node can will use up work_mem amount of memory. That means that if you have a very complex query with several such nodes, it will run out of memory.

Hi,
When I set shared buffers higher than 1GB, PostGreSQL doens't start.
When my application crashes I receive a message "Out of memory" or
"invalid sql statement". But the sql statement is ok - if I execute it
in a table with less registers, it works and it is very simple. When I monitor
the processes
I can see that PostGreSQL allocs only 700 MB of memory, and my application 2GB.
Total: 3GB.
My program was made in Delphi 2006, and I use ADO via ODBC to connect to
PostGreSQL.
The structure of my table:
CREATE TABLE "public"."fato_financeiro" (
"CODCLI" VARCHAR(6),
"PREST" VARCHAR(4) NOT NULL,
"NUMTRANSVENDA" VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL,
"RECNUM" VARCHAR(8) NOT NULL,
"CODFORNEC" VARCHAR(8),
"TIPO" VARCHAR(2),
"NUMDOC" VARCHAR(10),
"PREST_1" VARCHAR(4),
"VALOR" DOUBLE PRECISION,
"DTEMISSAO" TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE,
"DTVENC" TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE,
"DTPAG" TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE,
"VPAGO" DOUBLE PRECISION,
"PAGO_PAG" VARCHAR(9),
"ATRASADO" VARCHAR(3),
CONSTRAINT "fato_financeiro_idx" PRIMARY KEY("PREST", "NUMTRANSVENDA", "RECNUM")
) WITHOUT OIDS;
SQL statement:
select
fato_financeiro."TIPO",
fato_financeiro."NUMDOC",
fato_financeiro."PREST",
fato_financeiro."NUMDOC",
fato_financeiro."DTVENC",
fato_financeiro."DTPAG",
fato_financeiro."PAGO_PAG",
fato_financeiro."ATRASADO",
fato_financeiro."CODCLI",
fato_financeiro."CODFORNEC",
fato_financeiro."DTEMISSAO"
from fato_financeiro
Thanks,
Cláudia.

Hello,
I forgot to say that I changed work_mem to 16 MB but I didn't have sucess.
I received the same
error message.
Thanks,

The error message you're getting is from your client because it's getting too big of a result set back at once. Try using a cursor
I'm already using a cursor via ODBC. > On Nov 24, 2007 10:57 PM, <claudia.amorim@pcinformatica.com.br> wrote: >> Hello, >> >> I forgot to say that I changed work_mem to 16 MB but I didn't have >> sucess. >> I received the same >> error message. > > The error message you're getting is from your client because it's > getting too big of a result set back at once. > > Try using a cursor >
Are you then trying to process the whole data set at once? I'm pretty certain the issue is your app, not pgsql, running out of memory.
