List pgsql-performance
While working on determining a good stripe size for a database, I
realized it would be handy to know what the average request size is.
Getting this info is a simple matter of joining pg_stat_all_tables
and pg_statio_all_tables and doing some math, but there's one issue
I've found; it appears that there's no information on how many heap
blocks were read in by an index scan. Is there any way to get that info?
