These parameters control the server-wide cumulative statistics system.
When enabled, the data that is collected can be accessed via the
<code class="structname">pg_stat</code> and <code class="structname">pg_statio</code>

Enables the collection of information on the currently
executing command of each session, along with its identifier and the
time when that command began execution. This parameter is on by
default. Note that even when enabled, this information is only
visible to superusers, roles with privileges of the
<code class="literal">pg_read_all_stats</code> role and the user owning the

Enables timing of database I/O calls. This parameter is off by

Enables tracking of function call counts and time used. Specify
<code class="literal">pl</code> to track only procedural-language functions,
<code class="literal">all</code> to also track SQL and C language functions.
The default is <code class="literal">none</code>, which disables function
statistics tracking.
Only superusers and users with the appropriate <code class="literal">SET</code>

</p><div class="note"><h3 class="title">Note</h3><p>
SQL-language functions that are simple enough to be <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">inlined</span>”</span>

Determines the behavior when cumulative statistics are accessed
multiple times within a transaction. When set to
<code class="literal">none</code>, each access re-fetches counters from shared
memory. When set to <code class="literal">cache</code>, the first access to
statistics for an object caches those statistics until the end of the
transaction unless <code class="function">pg_stat_clear_snapshot()</code> is
called. When set to <code class="literal">snapshot</code>, the first statistics
access caches all statistics accessible in the current database, until
the end of the transaction unless
<code class="function">pg_stat_clear_snapshot()</code> is called. Changing this
parameter in a transaction discards the statistics snapshot.
The default is <code class="literal">cache</code>.
</p><div class="note"><h3 class="title">Note</h3><p>
<code class="literal">none</code> is most suitable for monitoring systems. If
values are only accessed once, it is the most
efficient. <code class="literal">cache</code> ensures repeat accesses yield the
same values, which is important for queries involving
e.g. self-joins. <code class="literal">snapshot</code> can be useful when
interactively inspecting statistics, but has higher overhead,
particularly if many database objects exist.

Enables in-core computation of a query identifier.
Query identifiers can be displayed in the <a class="link" href="monitoring-stats.html#MONITORING-PG-STAT-ACTIVITY-VIEW" title="28.2.3. pg_stat_activity"><code class="structname">pg_stat_activity</code></a>
view, using <code class="command">EXPLAIN</code>, or emitted in the log if
configured via the <a class="xref" href="runtime-config-logging.html#GUC-LOG-LINE-PREFIX">log_line_prefix</a> parameter.
The <a class="xref" href="pgstatstatements.html" title="F.32. pg_stat_statements — track statistics of SQL planning and execution">pg_stat_statements</a> extension also requires a query
identifier to be computed. Note that an external module can
alternatively be used if the in-core query identifier computation
method is not acceptable. In this case, in-core computation
must be always disabled.
Valid values are <code class="literal">off</code> (always disabled),
<code class="literal">on</code> (always enabled), <code class="literal">auto</code>,
which lets modules such as <a class="xref" href="pgstatstatements.html" title="F.32. pg_stat_statements — track statistics of SQL planning and execution">pg_stat_statements</a>
automatically enable it, and <code class="literal">regress</code> which
has the same effect as <code class="literal">auto</code>, except that the
query identifier is not shown in the <code class="literal">EXPLAIN</code> output
in order to facilitate automated regression testing.
The default is <code class="literal">auto</code>.
</p><div class="note"><h3 class="title">Note</h3><p>
To ensure that only one query identifier is calculated and
displayed, extensions that calculate query identifiers should
throw an error if a query identifier has already been computed.
