Message-ID: <E1ucQVx-006mGp-2n@gemulon.postgresql.org> (raw)
doc: Add note about how to use pg_overexplain.
This commit adds a note to the pg_overexplain page that describes
how to use it (LOAD, session_preload_libraries, or
shared_preload_libraries). The new text is mostly lifted from the
auto_explain page. We should probably consider centralizing this
information in the future.
While at it, add a missing "module" to the opening sentence.
