Hi all,
In postgres for knowing the size of a database we generally use the system
administration function "pg_database_size('database_name')".
I am curious to know how does this calculate internally from the pages(free
pages/fragmented pages/full pages) stored in the disk?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Pavan
