Hi!

I'd like to know if there is a way to see what queries are running
within a certain postgres instance and how much resources (cpu/memory)
etc. they are using. Right now it's impossible to see what is happening
within postgres when it's binaries are using 100% CPU.

In Sybase there is a command which let's you view what 'processes' are
running within the server and how much cpu (according to Sybase) they
are using. It also provides you with a stored procedure to kill off some
bad behaving queries. How can one do this within postgres?

Thanks in advance!

Best regards,

    Pascal
