This is on the object browser. When you navigate to the table and
click on the table name, you will see the output on the right side and
check the Properties tab.

FYI, in PgAdmin, there is an Option which determines if a _physical row count_ should be performed if the _estimated_ row count is less than a specified amount. It defaults to 2000.
To change it, Click on File, Options and under Browser click Properties. There you can change the default.--

There you can change the default.
So that means it does select count(*) from the_table every time you click on the table properties if the estimated count is less then the set amount?--

I believe so. That is why the default is low (2k). If you set it higher, it will naturally take longer.
I did not write or contribute to PgAdmin, so there is no point in complaining about it. It's just a user option.
