Bad timing? Perhaps. Might be worth trying again. See my reply to
Brad for a suggestion on how to trap it a bit easier.
How long are the pauses in your environment? I have seen some
customers complaining about 3-5 MINUTES at times, but after switching
to a RAID10 volume, they dropped to only seconds.
As the problem has been quite evident with PSQLv9.5, I doubt that XIO
has anything to do with it, so this info doesn't surprise me. However,
it is odd that you are not seeing paging. Did you remember to enable
"Advanced" output in FileMon? If you don't, you don't get the server's
accesses, including the pagefile.
