Is it possible to turn on pg_stat_extensions at a database level
Hello,
I have turned on pg_stat_extension for an instance. This instance has many databases. I want to confine the statistics to only one database.
Is it possible to do this?
LG
Ram

Do you mean pg_stat_statements?
If no - sorry, never heard of pg_stat_extension.
If yes - nope. stats are global. You can limit what you're analysing
from stats by adding appropriate where condition, like:
SELECT
*
FROM
pg_stat_statements AS pss
JOIN pg_database AS d ON pss.dbid = d.oid
WHERE
d.datname = 'postgres';

Yes, I mistyped . Pg_stat_statements. I meant to ask if the extension can be created only for one database, so that the details from the other databases arenot recorded. LG Ram Freundliche Grüße i.

You can't. ... but there is no need to do that. If you are only interested in the statistics for statements on a single database, add a WHERE condition with the database's object ID, like WHERE dbid = 47110815 Yours, Laurenz Albe

Coming from the mainframe world, we always assume that there is a lot of CPU/IO expense to monitor and collect statisticsfrom unnecessary Databases. This is why I wanted the collection of the statitstics itself to be restricted to just one Database. LG Ram Freundliche Grüße i. A.

Ok, now you know that you cannot get it. I doubt that there are databases where monitoring is unnecessary: - if there is nothing doing in that database, that won't be a lot of statistics to collect - if there is a lot going on in that database, the load will be noteworthy and can affect your other, necessary, databases in the same cluster, so you need the statistics to diagnose such problems Yours, Laurenz Albe
As far as I understand the matter the extension starts gathering statistical information on statements in all databases of a cluster once 'pg_stat_statments' is mentioned in the 'shared_preload_libraries' setting (including all overhead coming with it) and does nothing without it. CREATE EXTENSION pg_stat_statements just adds the view to look at these, based on the WHERE clauses mentioned already. It does not even have to be created inside that database you want to use it for. all best Gunnar On 3/12/26 10:33, Subramanian,Ramachandran wrote: > Yes, I mistyped . > > Pg_stat_statements. > > I meant to ask if the extension can be created only for one database, so that the details from the other databases arenot recorded. > > LG > > Ram > > > > > > Freundliche Grüße > > i.
