"static" and "dynamic" feel a bit off when used together. For "static", the stats are from a static state but they can be pushed to the dshash, as well, which is in dynamic shared memory. Hmm. Thinking more about that, I think that we should leave the existing "flush_pending_cb" alone. For the two others, how about "have_static_pending_cb" and "flush_static_cb" rather than "fixed"? It seems important to me to show the relationship between these two. > Not sure about this one, see above.

Hmm. I think that I'm OK with what you are doing here with the next parts in mind, based on this argument. > I don't think setting have_backendstats to false in pgstat_flush_backend() > is correct.

What you are doing with an all-zero check looks simpler in the long run. -- Michael
