The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 2258 Logged by: James Gray Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 8.1.2 Operating system: Linux/Windows Description: debug_print_plan doesn't work for cursors Details:
Feature request: Allow debug_print_plan to produce log output for DECLARE CURSOR statements (or on the first FETCH). The TODO FAQ does not list this feature, nor does the mail archives discuss it. Looking at the Postgres source for pg_plan_query() shows that DECLARE CURSOR is considered a utility command, and currently does not produce log output for debug_print_plan. However, EXPLAIN does allow a DECLARE CURSOR statement using a further statement type check. We have a large customer/application with performance problems related to a few of a large number of embedded cursors, and this feature would help isolate the problem more rapidly. The cursors are all of the type for which SPI_IS_CURSOR_PLAN would return TRUE. We could do a Postgres source change ourselves, but we are not sure that it is as simple as adding: if (Debug_print_plan) elog_node_display(DEBUG1, "plan", plan, debug_pretty_print) after the call to planner() in the routine PerformCursorOpen(). ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq
