Not terribly well, eg each new transaction starts over at command ID 1.
You could fix that particular objection by also tracking virtual xid.
But the bigger issue is that using es_processed for this seems like
an utter hack. It's not meant to be anything but statistical, and it's
not maintained anyway for non-canSetTag queries (ie, DO ALSO rule
commands). That reflects the fact that what it's meant to do is count the
number of rows returned to the executor's caller, which isn't necessarily
the definition we'd need here.
