This patch adjusts the core statistics views to match the decision already taken for pg_stat_statements, that values representing elapsed time should be represented as float8 and measured in milliseconds. By using float8, we are no longer tied to a specific maximum precision of timing data. (Internally, it's still microseconds, but we could now change that without needing changes at the SQL level.) The columns affected are pg_stat_bgwriter.checkpoint_write_time pg_stat_bgwriter.checkpoint_sync_time pg_stat_database.blk_read_time pg_stat_database.blk_write_time pg_stat_user_functions.total_time pg_stat_user_functions.self_time pg_stat_xact_user_functions.total_time pg_stat_xact_user_functions.self_time The first four of these are new in 9.2, so there is no compatibility issue from changing them. The others require a release note comment that they are now double precision (and can show a fractional part) rather than bigint as before; also their underlying statistics functions now match the column definitions, instead of returning bigint microseconds. |
