Hello,  
we are having a problem that postgresql services are using around 100% of CPU.  
When we run SELECT \* FROM pg\_stat\_activity; we can see that postgresql services are trying to execute SQL statement:

SELECT “fileid”, “storage” FROM “oc\_filecache” “fc” WHERE (“fileid” NOT IN (SELECT “fileid” FROM “oc\_files\_antivirus”)) AND (“mimetype” \<\> ‘2’) AND (“path” LIKE ‘files/%’) AND ((“fc”.“size” \<\> ‘0’)AND (“fc”.“size” \< $1)) LIMIT 1000

We tried to execute EXPLAIN ANALYZE for the above SQL statement and it took 5176426.636 ms to finish.

I am not sure what to do, so any help is greatly appreciated.

Sorry i do not use postgres. But perhaps a problem with a large **oc\_filecache**.

Hmm… that “oc\_files\_antivirus” part doesn’t look familiar to me. Some kind of strange plugin?  
The overall query is pretty straightforward. Try breaking it down until you find the part of the query that is making it slow. For example, see how long it takes to just run the select from oc\_files\_antivirus. Then see how long it takes to run the entire thing up to just before the first AND.

I suspect that postgresql will not be tested as well as mariadb, which is a lot more universal.

Other thoughts; it could be a limitation of your hardware – you didnt specify what kind of hardware you are running.

Also; `CentOS Linux release 8.2.2004`  
It might be time to update;

1. Current CentOS release version is 8.4,
2. CentOS is going EOL in just TWO MONTHS from now (RH/IBM announced this about a year ago) – consider Rocky Linux, which is a project started by one of the original founders of CentOS and should therefore be thought of as the _real_ CentOS. The official migration script can be found here: [rocky-tools/migrate2rocky at main · rocky-linux/rocky-tools · GitHub](https://github.com/rocky-linux/rocky-tools/tree/main/migrate2rocky)
