Have you measured the performance effects of this? On fast storage with large
shared_buffers I've seen these loops in profiles. It's probably fine, but it'd
be good to verify that.

This view is depressingly complicated. Added up the view definitions for
the already existing pg_stat_progress* views add up to a measurable part of
the size of an empty database:
postgres[1160866][1]=# SELECT sum(octet_length(ev_action)),
SUM(pg_column_size(ev_action)) FROM pg_rewrite WHERE ev_class::regclass::text
LIKE '%progress%';
┌───────┬───────┐
│ sum │ sum │
├───────┼───────┤
│ 97410 │ 19786 │
└───────┴───────┘
(1 row)
and this view looks to be a good bit more complicated than the existing
pg_stat_progress* views.
Indeed:
template1[1165473][1]=# SELECT ev_class::regclass, length(ev_action),
pg_column_size(ev_action) FROM pg_rewrite WHERE ev_class::regclass::text LIKE
'%progress%' ORDER BY length(ev_action) DESC;
┌───────────────────────────────┬────────┬────────────────┐

├───────────────────────────────┼────────┼────────────────┤
│ pg_stat_progress_checkpoint │ 43290 │ 5409 │
│ pg_stat_progress_create_index │ 23293 │ 4177 │
│ pg_stat_progress_cluster │ 18390 │ 3704 │
│ pg_stat_progress_analyze │ 16121 │ 3339 │

│ pg_stat_progress_copy │ 15124 │ 3080 │
│ pg_stat_progress_basebackup │ 8406 │ 2094 │
└───────────────────────────────┴────────┴────────────────┘
(7 rows)
pg_rewrite without pg_stat_progress_checkpoint: 745472, with: 753664
pg_rewrite is the second biggest relation in an empty database already...
template1[1164827][1]=# SELECT relname, pg_total_relation_size(oid) FROM
pg_class WHERE relkind = 'r' ORDER BY 2 DESC LIMIT 5;
┌────────────────┬────────────────────────┐
