Postgres latency issues during memory compaction in Ubuntu Linux
We’ve recently upgraded our EC2 instance that hosts our Postgres database to an i2.8xlarge with 244GB of memory (this is to utilise the large amounts of ephemeral storage it comes with). Since upgrading, we’ve been having some issues with latency in Postgres that appear to be due to memory compaction that’s occurring in the Linux kernel. We’re using PostgreSQL 9.3

How to check if a service that I don’t know the name of is running on Ubuntu
I do not know the service’s name, but would like to stop the service by checking its status. For example, if I want to check if the PostgreSQL service is running or not, but I don’t know the service’s name, then how could I check its status?

PostgreSQL psql terminal command
I’m trying to get psql to format nicely and am following the docs here.
