I found the function "table_relation_size" is only used by buffer
manager for "RELKIND_RELATION", "RELKIND_TOASTVALUE" and
"RELKIND_MATVIEW", i.e.

         case RELKIND_RELATION:
         case RELKIND_TOASTVALUE:
         case RELKIND_MATVIEW:
             {
                 /*
                  * Not every table AM uses BLCKSZ wide fixed size blocks.
                  * Therefore tableam returns the size in bytes - but

                  * Therefore divide, rounding up.
                  */
                 uint64        szbytes;

                 szbytes = table_relation_size(relation, forkNum);

                 return (szbytes + (BLCKSZ - 1)) / BLCKSZ;
             }

So using "calculate_relation_size" and "calculate_toast_table_size" in
"calculate_table_size" is easy to understand and the original logic is
simple.

You are correct. This is the logic that is attempted to be applied
in dbsize.c in this patch.

So what do you think of the patch?

I would suggest to keep the original logic unless there is a bug.
