I have 2, closely related:
1) if I have multiple pids running queries, say all selects, I have no
idea which pid is running which query
and that ties to:
2) If I try to kill 1 postgres pid (e.g. to abort a bad query), the
whole backend shuts down and rolls back.
Can we get a way to look at and then kill a specific bad query?
Maybe this is not missing functionality, it can do it and I just don't
know how. Anybody want to wisen me up? :)
