How to kill the kill/restart Postgres database when server is too slow

If site is slow or not loading ,please follow the instructions I sent you.

Please first check how many connections we have by running this command:

heroku pg:info -a powr

this should give you something like this:-

=== HEROKU_POSTGRESQL_BROWN_URL Plan: Standard 4 Status: Available Data Size: 197 GB Tables: 144 PG Version: 11.2 Connections: 192/500 Connection Pooling: Available Credentials: 1 Fork/Follow: Available Rollback: earliest from 2019-03-15 08:38 UTC Created: 2019-03-12 00:20 UTC Region: us Data Encryption: In Use Continuous Protection: On Followers: HEROKU_POSTGRESQL_BRONZE Maintenance: not required Maintenance window: Mondays 20:30 to Tuesdays 00:30 UTC Add-on: postgresql-animate-68766

Make sure you are looking at HEROKU_POSTGRESQL_BROWN_URL database and its Connections, you can see its currently at 192/500 If its more than 500, or even more than 450, please run this command:-

heroku pg:killall -a powr

heroku pg:ps -a powr - look at transaction time heroku pg:kill <pid> heroku pg:diagnose -a powr heroku pg:info -a powr heroku pg:killall
