Postgres.exe Question for HEM

#1 17th February 2009, 12:15 AM

I looked in my task manager, because my comp keeps slowing down, and seen 6 Postgres.exe running!!!

Is this normal? I'm only running 1-2 tables atm and I'm running windows xp. I've put this question on the HEM forums, but it usually takes them a day or two to answer my questions. I figured it might be answered quicker here.

Also, if this isn't normal, can you explain how to stop this from happening? Thanks in advance.

Yes, it's completely normal. Just don't ask me why, because I don't understand it. But ya, I looked the problem up a while back - HEM is just a very resource-intensive program ime.

6 = Normal. I have 'em, too. Any time intense database functions are involved, your gonna have some resource drain. Nearest I can tell, those 6 programs are resident to allow quick and easy access to the Postgres DB system. If you didn't have those up, there'd be a bigger drain every time you went to re-establish your DB flow.

I believe they are using asynchronous database calls.. so every database call that's made from HEM is on it's own thread... so the # is fine...

the big question is: how much % of processor and memory is each using?

I think the most is ~1350 k and the least is ~200 k.

I'm trying to clean up the task manager by googling each task that I don't recognize. So I was wondering why there were so many postgres.exe's. But as long as it's normal then I'm fine. And thanks for the quick responses.
