What is Pg Stat Statements?
Pg Stat Statements is a system view in PostgreSQL that provides detailed statistics on the execution of SQL queries. It is particularly useful for developers and database administrators to identify performance bottlenecks, optimize query performance, and troubleshoot issues. This view can be queried directly or accessed through various administration tools. To use Pg Stat Statements, you need to enable the pg_stat_statements extension by adding the following line to the postgresql.conf configuration file.
