Thumbs up on this from a lurker.
I recall a previous post about some sort of "progress bar" hack that
would show you where in a plan a currently executing query was at. Has
any work been done on this?

I've written up a Warm Standby script as a .c program rather than
scripts, to allow it to be portable and potentially shipped as part of
PostgreSQL core.
pg_standby is designed to be a wait-for restore_command, required to
turn a normal archive recovery into a Warm Standby. Within the
restore_comm

Is there a big reason why TOAST tables are called such cryptic names?
e.g. pg_toast.pg_toast_16399
Wouldn't it be more pleasant to have them called the same thing as their
parent
e.g. pg_toast._toast
This would be very convenient for most purposes, though it would mean
we'd have to do something

Hi,
The short summary that I use for .a files is:

On either run

Before a

After lipo it shows:
