* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v4 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.

* [PATCH v5 3/3] Adding the pg_stat_backend_transaction view @ 2025-08-09 14:22 Bertrand Drouvot <[email protected]> 0 siblings, 0 replies; 167+ messages in thread From: Bertrand Drouvot @ 2025-08-09 14:22 UTC (permalink / raw) This view displays one row per server process, showing transaction statistics related to the current activity of that process. It currently displays the pid, the number of XIDs generated, the number of commits, the number of rollbacks and the time at which these statistics were last reset. It's built on top of a new function (pg_stat_get_backend_transactions()). The idea is the same as pg_stat_activity and pg_stat_get_activity(). Adding documentation and tests.
