these questions would better be asked of the pg_general email list, and
not the bug reporting mail list, as they are not bug reports.


that said, this was answered when you asked it 3 days ago... there's a
series of functions like pg_relation_size(), pg_total_relation_size()
which will give you the size of a specific table.   these are all
documented here,
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/functions-admin.html

if you want the size of every table, then you could do something like...

select table_schema || '.' || table_name,
pg_size_pretty(pg_total_relation_size(table_schema||'.'||table_name))
from informa
tion_schema.tables where table_schema not in ('pg_catalog',
'information_schema') order by pg_total_relation_size(table_schema||'.'|
|table_name) desc;
