Hello list,
I know this is a complicated issue, but I'll throw it out there...
Our DB box has 3GB of ram - which is supposed to be used by
postgres. Whenever I use top, it only shows about 800MB being
used with 2.2GB free. What can I do to tell postgres to use more
of that memory - maybe 2GB ?
I am running on fedora core 1. as far as my postgrsql.conf file, here's
the related settings:
vacuum_mem = 16384
max_fsm_pages = 32001
max_fsm_relations = 2000
max_files_per_process = 10000
effective_cache_size = 100000
Also, in my /etc/sysctl.conf file, I have these lines:
# added to allow a single app to have 512MB
kernel.shmall = 536870912
kernel.shmmax = 536870912
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Devin
