pg_stat_monitor view reference

pg_stat_monitor provides a view where the statistics data is displayed. To see all available columns, run the following command from psql:

\d pg_stat_monitor;

Some column names differ depending on the PostgreSQL version.

PostgreSQL 17

The following table describes the pg_stat_monitor view for PostgreSQL 17 and higher versions.

PostgreSQL 17
Column Type Description
bucket bigint Data collection unit. The number shows what bucket in a chain a record belongs to
bucket_start_time timestamp with time zone The start time of the bucket
userid oid An ID of the user who run a query
username text The name of the user who run a query
dbid oid the ID of the database where the query was executed
datname text The name of a database where the query was executed
client_ip inet The IP address of a client that run the query
pgsm_query_id bigint Generates a hash code to uniquely identify a query. The hash is independent of PostgreSQL server version, constants within the query, database, user or schema. It is calculated on the normalized query text. Comments within the query text are ignored and all spaces within the query text are normalized to a single space character before calculating the query hash. The pgsm_query_id provides insights into how the query is being planned and executed across PostgreSQL versions, database, users or schemas. This also leads to more visibility into query performance behavior, however, it affects the database performance. When needed, it can be disabled with the pg_stat_monitor.pgsm_enable_pgsm_query_id configuration parameter
toplevel bool True means that a query was executed as a top-level statement
top_queryid bignit The internal hash code serving to identify a top query in a statement
query text The actual text of the query
comments text Comments about the query
planid text An internally generated ID of a query plan

minmax_stats_since timestamp with time zone Time at which min/max statistics gathering started for this statement (fields min_plan_time, max_plan_time, min_exec_time and max_exec_time). Please note that unlike pg_stat_statements, pg_stat_monitor doesn’t have an option to reset min/max counters, so minmax_stats_since always equals to stats_since

local_blks_dirtied bigint Total number of local blocks “dirtied” during the query execution (i.e. a query modified at least one tuple in a block and this block must be written to a drive)
local_blks_written bigint Total number of local blocks written simultaneously to a drive during the query execution
temp_blks_read bigint Total number of blocks of temporary files read from a drive. Temporary files are used when there’s not enough memory to execute a query
temp_blks_written bigint Total number of blocks of temporary files written to a drive
blk_read_time double precision Total waiting time (in ms) for reading blocks
blk_write_time double precision Total waiting time (in ms) for writing blocks to a drive
resp_calls text[] Call histogram
cpu_user_time double precision The time (in ms) the CPU spent on running the query
cpu_sys_time double precision The time (in ms) the CPU spent on executing the kernel code
bucket_done boolean Indicates whether the bucket is still active (false) or completed (true). If the bucket is active, more queries and stats could be added to this bucket. If the bucket is completed, the bucket is not active and no more queries nor stats can be added there, thus allowing accurate data display for monitoring applications
