Оптимизация запросов к PostgreSQL: 5 неочевидных настроек для продакшена

В реальных проектах PostgreSQL часто работает не на полную мощность из-за дефолтных настроек, которые не учитывают специфику нагрузки. Разберём 5 неочевидных параметров, которые стоит подкрутить в postgresql.conf для стабильной работы в продакшене. Важно: перед внесением изменений обязательно протестируйте их в тестовой среде . Изменения глобальных параметров конфигурации могут как ускорить, так и замедлить работу базы данных.

쿼리 최적화를 넘어선 PostgreSQL 스케일링: 기본 설정과 트랜잭션 관리의 핵심 전략

PostgreSQL의 기본 설정은 범용성을 위해 보수적으로 책정되어 있으므로 현대적인 SSD 환경과 메모리 용량에 맞춰 shared_buffers와 random_page_cost 등을 반드시 조정해야 합니다.

Записки оптимизатора 1С (ч.14.3). Отличия в обслуживании статистик в MS SQL и в PostgreSQL

Переходим к заключительной третьей части регламентного обслуживания баз данных. И сегодня акцент сделаем на обслуживании статистик в СУБД PostgreSQL. Актуальные статистики в PG важны ничуть не менее, чем в MS SQL, но разница в настройках и алгоритмах есть, соответственно, подходы будут чуть различаться.

Dear #mastoadmins,

my nearly single user instance, running since December 2022 has a 1.14 GB Postgres database running. This seems enormous.

autovacuum doesn't do much, but I am a total Postgres noob…

Here’s my postgres config. It should have around 3GB of RAM

# -----------------------------
# PostgreSQL configuration file
# -----------------------------
#
# This file consists of lines of the form:
#
#   name = value
#
# (The "=" is optional.)  Whitespace may be used.  Comments are introduced with
# "#" anywhere on a line.  The complete list of parameter names and allowed
# values can be found in the PostgreSQL documentation.
#
# The commented-out settings shown in this file represent the default values.
# Re-commenting a setting is NOT sufficient to revert it to the default value;
# you need to reload the server.
#
# This file is read on server startup and when the server receives a SIGHUP
# signal.  If you edit the file on a running system, you have to SIGHUP the
# server for the changes to take effect, run "pg_ctl reload", or execute
# "SELECT pg_reload_conf()".  Some parameters, which are marked below,
# require a server shutdown and restart to take effect.
#
# Any parameter can also be given as a command-line option to the server, e.g.,
# "postgres -c log_connections=on".  Some parameters can be changed at run time
# with the "SET" SQL command.
#
# Memory units:  kB = kilobytes        Time units:  ms  = milliseconds

#                TB = terabytes                     h   = hours
