My system is stabilised and I'm looking at this now. I'm not getting a lot from
pg_prepared_statements yet: perhaps this view only reports on statements you've
prepared using PostgreSQL's PREPARE through their SQL interface, and not
DBI's DBD::Pg $dbh->prepare().
I know that a few versions back PostgreSQL's DBD driver didn't support prepared
statements (the operation was still there, it just wasn't doing the
whole magic),
I imagine that it does today but will investigate further.
Cheers,
Stuart.
