obtain tuple-level statistics.

<function>pgstattuple</function> returns a relation's physical length,
|
|
percentage of <quote>dead</> tuples, and other info. This may help users
|
|
to determine whether vacuum is necessary or not. The argument is the
|
|
target relation's name (optionally schema-qualified).
|
|
For example:
|
|
<programlisting>
|
|
test=> SELECT * FROM pgstattuple('pg_catalog.pg_proc');
|
|
-[ RECORD 1 ]------+-------
|
|
table_len | 458752
|
|
tuple_count | 1470
|
|
tuple_len | 438896
|
|
tuple_percent | 95.67
|
|
dead_tuple_count | 11
|
|
dead_tuple_len | 3157
|
|
dead_tuple_percent | 0.69
|
|
free_space | 8932
|
|
free_percent | 1.95
