Hi Folks,
please help ,

therse seems to be too much lag between the access collector
and system status. even the pids of backend does not seems to be matching.

tradein_clients=# SELECT pg_stat_get_backend_pid(s.backendid) AS procpid,
pg_stat_get_backend_activity(s.backendid) AS current_query FROM (SELECT
pg_stat_get_backend_idset() AS backendid) s;
procpid |   current_query

the same time:

[root@linux10320 root2]# kill -INT 27135
bash: kill: (27135) - No such pid
[root@linux10320 root2]#
