Hi,

I tried pg_repack on the new server with no luck, so I've decided to move
back to the old server to discard:

1. performance decrease due to server raw characteristics
2. performance decrease due to network latencies

I've seen no improvement whatsoever. Could the issue be due to one of, or
an interaction between :

1. Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS (Linux 3.14.32-vps-grs-ipv6-64 x86_64 x86_64
x86_64 GNU/Linux)
2. Postgres 9.6.1/Postgis 2.3
3. pgbouncer 1.7.2

I guess to be sure I would need to find a way to restore my initial
performances one way or another 😒

The postgresql.conf is the same as before, and very close to the defaults:
http://pastebin.com/ZGYH38ft. I realised I had "track_functions on" but I
turned it off and it didn't help.

The only thing that changed purposefully is the postgres and pgbouncer
authentication mechanism (it used to be `trust` for both, now it's `md5`
for both).

Any help appreciated,

Thanks
