Hello Everyone!

I can simplify and describe the issue I faced.
I have 2 nodes in db cluster: master and standby.

I create a simple table on master node by a command via psql:
CREATE TABLE table1 (a INTEGER);
After this I fill the table by COPY command from a file which  contains 2000000 (2 million) entries.

And in case when I run for example such a command:
UPDATE table1 SET a='1'

or such a command:
DELETE FROM table1;
I see in PostgreSQL log the an entry: terminating walsender process due to replication timeout.

I suppose that this issue caused by small value of wal_sender_timeout=1s and long runtime of the queries (it takes about 15 seconds).


What is the best way to proceed it? How to avoid this? Is there any additional configuration which can help here?

Regards,
Andrei

Hello.

Thanks for the answer.

Can frequent database operations cause getting a standby server behind? Is there a way to avoid this situation?
I checked that walsender works well in my test  if I set wal_sender_timeout at least to 5 second.


Best regards,
Andrei Yahorau

Though I don't have an exact idea of your configuration, it seems
to me that your standby is simply getting behind more than one
second from the master. If you regard the fact as a problem of
replication, the configuration can be said to be finding the
problem correctly.

Since the keep-alive packet is sent in-band, it doesn't get to
the standby before already-sent-but-not-processed packets.

It is not the same "problem". What was mentioned there is fast
network making the sender-side loop busy, which prevents
keepalive packet from sending.
