Shows which Postgres query is spilling to disk when 'Temporary file size exceeds temp_file_limit' fires. Use when a query dies with the temp-file error and you need the culprit. Trigger: the exact temp_file_limit error in Postgres logs or client output.
Shows how to find which part of a ClickHouse query blew the memory limit when 'Memory limit (for query) exceeded' fires. Use when a ClickHouse query dies on memory and you need the offending stage. Trigger: the exact memory-limit error from ClickHouse.
Shows how to find what is holding Postgres connections when 'FATAL: remaining connection slots are reserved for non-replication superuser connections' hits during a traffic spike. Use when new connections are refused under load. Trigger: the exact FATAL line in Postgres logs during a spike.
Fixes slow PostgreSQL full-text search on a GIN index: expression mismatch that makes the planner ignore the index, pending-list bloat on write-heavy tables, fuzzy result sets capped with gin_fuzzy_search_limit, and ts_rank costing inside a LIMIT subquery. Use when a @@ query on a tsvector GIN column runs a sequential…

Fixes a migration stuck waiting on an AccessExclusiveLock held by a long-running analytics query. It shows how to identify the blocking query with pg_blocking_pids, inspect it, terminate it safely, and re-run the migration. Use when DDL will not start and pg_stat_activity shows a lock wait.
Fixes the uncertainty when a websocket-based migration runner disconnects during a long ALTER. It shows how to check the database directly for whether the ALTER is still running, finished, or never started, using pg_stat_activity and the information schema. Use when the runner is gone but the database may still be wor…
Fixes query plans that are fast in test but slow in production because the planner statistics are weeks out of date. Use when EXPLAIN shows a sane plan on the test database but a bad one in production for the same query. Key trigger: pg_stat_user_tables shows last_analyze weeks old on the slow tables.

Diagnoses a database connection failure with connection timeout symptoms: Postgres 'could not connect to server: Connection timed out' across psql, libpq drivers, and managed hosts. Use when the client cannot reach the server: fail-fast probing with connect_timeout, layering DNS vs raw TCP vs handshake for network dia…
Troubleshooting guide for duplicate-query detectors that trip on prepared statements because each execution is logged with its bind params as if it were a separate query. Use when the alert groups executions that share one statement template. Shows how to normalize by template, tell a real per-row loop from a single b…
A playbook for killing false N+1 alerts: normalize queries by parameterizing literals before comparing, only flag structurally identical queries, and diff the WHERE clauses the agent skipped. Use when a profiler agent flags an N+1 on queries that only look duplicated but have different WHERE clauses. Not for real N+1 …
Fixes migrations that lock a table for tens of minutes while adding an index the planner recommended. Use when CREATE INDEX or ALTER TABLE blocks writes on a large production table. Key trigger: the migration held an exclusive lock and traffic queued behind it.
Troubleshooting guide for inflated per-request query counts where the profiler agent's own instrumentation queries are included in the trace. Use when a query count looks impossibly high. Shows how to fingerprint the agent's own queries, exclude them via connection tagging, and fix the detector to ignore its own traff…
Troubleshooting guide for index recommendations validated on tiny staging datasets that prove useless at production scale. Use when an index shipped from a small-data benchmark does nothing in production. Shows how to test on production-scale data, why the planner behaves differently by table size, and how to gate ind…
Shows how to set up pg_stat_statements for Postgres query monitoring. Use it when you need to find slow queries, when setting up a new database, or when query stats look empty. Not for real-time process inspection.
