Looking at http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faqs.FAQ_Solaris.html , I did not find anything related. Same with the doc/FAQ_Solaris from the postgresql-8.1.4 sources. ... Ok, I tried on a Linux server with 8.0.0, where I could get some useful informations out of ps. I tried /usr/ucb/ps on Solaris, which revealed more information, but I did not see a test query from a remote client for some magic reason (select * from t1, t2 with 250,000 and 512,000 rows). I think, I can live with it for now, as I will upgrade later this year. Thanks, Thomas Mack TU Braunschweig, Institut für Informationssysteme
