Thanks Michael. We have 2 functions - 1 returns the on disk size of a
table or index without any additional parts such as indexes or toast
tables. The other function returns the total on disk size of a table and
all associated indexes and toast tables (and any indexes they might
have). The current names are pg_relation_size() for the first function,
and pg_table_size() for the second.

Hmm, none of those really stand out - but thanks anyway. More are
welcome :-)
