This isn't a terribly good query- it's entirely valid to have 'pg_blah'
and 'informationblah' tables in user schemas.  If you'd like to filter
out the catalogs/internal schemas, filter based on schema name instead.

Also, this doesn't actually provide what Edson is asking for.  Edson's
asking for a query that uses pg_ls_dir() or some custom function which
will run 'stat' on each file and return the size, according to the OS.

Thanks!

Stephen
