Are you talking about 'postmaster', or 'postgres'? The default behavior of top has a nasty habit of confusing the two; press 'c' to have it show the full info. That said, we have a bunch of postgres processes going at any one time, but it doesn't bring anything down. If it's causing problems on your database server, you may be running up against the limitations of the hardware -- generally, you want your DB server to have the fastest disks you can afford and lots and lots of RAM, otherwise you can get IO-bound pretty easily and load will start spiking. -- "May the forces of evil become confused on the way to your house." -- George Carlin --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
