Sorry, I don't think I made myself clear. I don't want to query the DB
every few seconds to get its current status. I want to keep an open an
open connection and have immediate access to all information like I have
when I set the debug level high and see everything going on inside the
DB right on my machine.
I guess think of it as a dashboard that constantly displays the db
status. Something like 'top' rather than 'ps -ef|grep .....'.
As far as I understand, JDBC is just a mechanism to connect to a db,
execute queries, etc., not get this kind of info.

Well, we have jdbc at jdbc.postgresql.org.
