Yes, I was aware of GD and SD. My question is about what facilities Postgres provides for implementing such a thing. Where is the proper place for the root of the SD/GD? What does an implementation use to determine that two calls belong to the same session?



the process ID is unique for each active session.   of course, the OS can recycle a PID when a process/connection terminates
