Hello community,
CONTEXT:
Back in October I presented the talk "Debugging active queries with
mid-flight instrumented explain plans" at PGConf EU 2024
(recording: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ahTb-7C05c) presenting
an experimental feature that enables visualization of in progress
EXPLAIN ANALYZE executions. Given the positive feedback and requests,
I am sending this patch with the feature, which I am calling Progressive
Explain.
PROPOSAL:
This proposal introduces a feature to print execution plans of active
queries in an in-memory shared hash object so that other sessions can
visualize them with a new view: pg_stat_progress_explain.
Hello
Thanks for your contribution! Such feature would be very useful.
I did not look carefully about the implementation. I just wanted to let
you know someone already posted a similar feature in this thread :
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/CADdR5ny_0dFwnD%2BsuBnV1Vz6NDKbFHeWoV1EDv9buhDCtc3aAA%40mail.gmail.com
Maybe it could give you some ideas.
Regards,
