The Statistics Collector</A ></H1 ><P > <SPAN CLASS="PRODUCTNAME" >PostgreSQL</SPAN >'s <I CLASS="FIRSTTERM" >statistics collector</I > is a subsystem that supports collection and reporting of information about server activity. Presently, the collector can count accesses to tables and indexes in both disk-block and individual-row terms. It also tracks the total number of rows in each table, and information about vacuum and analyze actions for each table. It can also count calls to user-defined functions and the total time spent in each one. </P ><P > <SPAN CLASS="PRODUCTNAME" >PostgreSQL</SPAN > also supports reporting of the exact command currently being executed by other server processes. This facility is independent of the collector process. </P ><DIV CLASS="SECT2" ><H2 CLASS="SECT2" ><A NAME="MONITORING-STATS-SETUP" >27.2.1. Statistics Collection Configuration</A ></H2 ><P > Since collection of statistics adds some overhead to query execution, the system can be configured to collect or not collect information. This is controlled by configuration parameters that are normally set in <TT CLASS="FILENAME" >postgresql.conf</TT >. (See <A HREF="runtime-config.html" >Chapter 18</A > for details about setting configuration parameters.) </P ><P > The parameter <A HREF="runtime-config-statistics.html#GUC-TRACK-ACTIVITIES" >track_activities</A > enables monitoring of the current command being executed by any server process. </P ><P > The parameter <A HREF="runtime-config-statistics.html#GUC-TRACK-COUNTS" >track_counts</A > controls whether statistics are collected about table and index accesses. </P ><P > The parameter <A HREF="runtime-config-statistics.html#GUC-TRACK-FUNCTIONS" >track_functions</A > enables tracking of usage of user-defined functions. </P ><P > The parameter <A HREF="runtime-config-statistics.html#GUC-TRACK-IO-TIMING" >track_io_timing</A > enables monitoring of block read and write times. </P ><P > Normally these parameters are set in <TT CLASS="FILENAME" >postgresql.conf</TT > so that they apply to all server processes, but it is possible to turn them on or off in individual sessions using the <A HREF="sql-set.html" >SET</A > command. (To prevent ordinary users from hiding their activity from the administrator, only superusers are allowed to change these parameters with <TT CLASS="COMMAND" >SET</TT >.) </P ><P > The statistics collector transmits the collected information to other <SPAN CLASS="PRODUCTNAME" >PostgreSQL</SPAN > processes through temporary files. These files are stored in the directory named by the <A HREF="runtime-config-statistics.html#GUC-STATS-TEMP-DIRECTORY" >stats_temp_directory</A > parameter, <TT CLASS="FILENAME" >pg_stat_tmp</TT > by default. For better performance, <TT CLASS="VARNAME" >stats_temp_directory</TT > can be pointed at a RAM-based file system, decreasing physical I/O requirements. When the server shuts down, a permanent copy of the statistics data is stored in the <TT CLASS="FILENAME" >global</TT > subdirectory, so that statistics can be retained across server restarts. </P ></DIV ><DIV CLASS="SECT2" ><H2 CLASS="SECT2" ><A NAME="MONITORING-STATS-VIEWS" >27.2.2. Viewing Collected Statistics</A ></H2 ><P > Several predefined views, listed in <A HREF="monitoring-stats.html#MONITORING-STATS-VIEWS-TABLE" >Table 27-1</A >, are available to show the results of statistics collection. Alternatively, one can build custom views using the underlying statistics functions, as discussed in <A HREF="monitoring-stats.html#MONITORING-STATS-FUNCTIONS" >Section 27.2.3</A >. </P ><P > When using the statistics to monitor current activity, it is important to realize that the information does not update instantaneously. Each individual server process transmits new statistical counts to the collector just before going idle; so a query or transaction still in progress does not affect the displayed totals. Also, the collector itself emits a new report at most once per <TT CLASS="VARNAME" >PGSTAT_STAT_INTERVAL</TT > milliseconds (500 ms unless altered while building the server). So the displayed information lags behind actual activity. However, current-query information collected by <TT CLASS="VARNAME" >track_activities</TT > is always up-to-date. </P ><P > Another important point is that when a server process is asked to display any of these statistics, it first fetches the most recent report emitted by the collector process and then continues to use this snapshot for all statistical views and functions until the end of its current transaction. So the statistics will show static information as long as you continue the current transaction. Similarly, information about the current queries of all sessions is collected when any such information is first requested within a transaction, and the same information will be displayed throughout the transaction. This is a feature, not a bug, because it allows you to perform several queries on the statistics and correlate the results without worrying that the numbers are changing underneath you. But if you want to see new results with each query, be sure to do the queries outside any transaction block. Alternatively, you can invoke <CODE CLASS="FUNCTION" >pg_stat_clear_snapshot</CODE >(), which will discard the current transaction's statistics snapshot (if any). The next use of statistical information will cause a new snapshot to be fetched. </P ><P > A transaction can also see its own statistics (as yet untransmitted to the collector) in the views <TT CLASS="STRUCTNAME" >pg_stat_xact_all_tables</TT >, <TT CLASS="STRUCTNAME" >pg_stat_xact_sys_tables</TT >, <TT CLASS="STRUCTNAME" >pg_stat_xact_user_tables</TT >, and <TT CLASS="STRUCTNAME" >pg_stat_xact_user_functions</TT >. These numbers do not act as stated above; instead they update continuously throughout the transaction. </P ><DIV CLASS="TABLE" ><A NAME="MONITORING-STATS-VIEWS-TABLE" ></A ><P ><B >Table 27-1.
