Use http://pgfouine.projects.postgresql.org/.

Take a look at statement_timeout and log_statement configuration variables.

log_rotation_size, together with an external tool to delete old log
files. Or use log_truncate_on_rotation and log_rotation_age instead of
log_rotation_size.

I suspect he meant log_min_duration_statement which lets you log only queries
which take too long and not statement_timeout which would actually kill your
query if it took too long.

The best thing you can do is setting the log_min_duration_statement to
some reasonable value (say 200 ms or something like that), and then
repeatedly fix the worst queries (modifying them, adding indexes, ...)
etc. We've adopted this as a common part of weekly development /
production tuning, and the performance of the apps shoot up (response
time of the web application dropped from 2 seconds to less than 0.5 second).

Actually we wrote something similar as pgfounie was not as nice as
today, at that time (2005] - you can find that tool on
http://opensource.pearshealthcyber.cz/. Actually I'm working on a
complete rewrite of that tool into Java (new features, performance etc.)
- it's almost done, the alpha release should be ready in two weeks or
something like that. If you are interested in this, just let me know and
I'll notify you once the first version is available on sf.net.

Can you post an announcement here?
