For the records, I guess on Linux you can gather such kind of information via
ebpf, even without hooks in Postgres (if you avoid too frequent context
switches between kernel/user space via e.g. relying on send/recv, it should be
also efficient). I have a POC in my postgres-bcc repo, it looks like this:
$ net_per_query.py bin/postgres -c $container_id
attaching...
listening...
detaching...
