commit    93787ce7477b0d718bdcdb88605725792f36697e
Author:   Kevin Grittner <kgrittn@postgresql.org>
Date:     Wed Jul 02 20:03:57 2014 +0000
First released in: 9.5.0, 9.4.0

    Smooth reporting of commit/rollback statistics.
    
    If a connection committed or rolled back any transactions within a
    PGSTAT_STAT_INTERVAL pacing interval without accessing any tables,
    the reporting of those statistics would be held up until the
    connection closed or until it ended a PGSTAT_STAT_INTERVAL interval
    in which it had accessed a table.  This could result in under-
    reporting of transactions for an extended period, followed by a
    spike in reported transactions.
    
    While this is arguably a bug, the impact is minimal, primarily
    affecting, and being affected by, monitoring software.  It might
    cause more confusion than benefit to change the existing behavior
    in released stable branches, so apply only to master and the 9.4
    beta.
    
    Gurjeet Singh, with review and editing by Kevin Grittner,
    incorporating suggested changes from Abhijit Menon-Sen and Tom
    Lane.
