Hi,

We've a fedora core 3 box with PostgreSQL 8.0.

There is some performance problems with the server and I discovered with vmstat tool that there is some process writing a lot of information in the disk subsystem.

I stopped the database and even so vmstat showed the same rates of disk writes.

I could I discover who is sending so many data to the disks?

Thanks in advance,

Reimer
