Thanks!  That looks like a handy tool.

I think in this case we'll wait for 9.2.  We are looking forward to it.

As others already mentioned, the improvements in pg_stat_statements by Peter Geoghean in 9.2 is the first thing you
shouldlook into I guess. 
Especially if you're looking for per-query stats.

If you're looking for "global stats," you might be interested in an extension I wrote a few months ago and collects
queryhistogram. It's available on pgxn.org: http://pgxn.org/dist/query_histogram/ 

The question is whether tools like this can give you reliable answers to your questions - that depends on your workload
(howmuch it varies) etc.
