The observations made already wondering if there are any long-running transactions lurking around fit with what I'd wonder, too. If there's something like a pg_dump or some long running report that holds a transaction open for a couple hours, that would certainly explain the phenomenon, and it's unfortunate that this leads to big growth of sl_log_* I wonder if this is a case that would get helped by BRIN indexes. Note that this is an experimental proposal I have lurking about... https://github.com/cbbrowne/slony1-engine/commit/7a02c20cde8c8f3a54914ca6889d392074d51503 The index requests are (with @NAMESPACE@ as a needful schema substitution): create index sl_log_1_brin_txid on @NAMESPACE at .sl_log_1 using BRIN (log_txid); create index sl_log_2_brin_txid on @NAMESPACE at .sl_log_2 using BRIN (log_txid); create index sl_log_1_brin_action on @NAMESPACE at .sl_log_1 using BRIN (log_actionseq); create index sl_log_2_brin_action on @NAMESPACE at .sl_log_2 using BRIN (log_actionseq); It mightn't help, and certainly won't, if the backends aren't on versions supporting BRIN (only in PG 9.5+), but on the other hand, it might. (And if it's a big win, that would be REALLY nice to know! I'll bet the folks that worked on BRIN indexes would also be happy to hear it!)
