Hi,
We're starting to migrate from postgres 8.1.8 to 8.2.4
and noticing behavioral differences in what they log (via syslog to /var/log/pgsql)
The behavior we have on 8.1.8 is:
* log all data-modification queries (with duration)
* log all queries that take longer than 1000 millisec (with duration)
We'd like to have that behavior on 8.2.x as well.
Instead we're getting:
* log all data-modification queries (with duration)
* log all queries that take longer than 1000 millisec (with duration)
PLUS
* (unwanted) log durations only for fast, non-mod queries
example:
Sep 26 09:03:50 db02 postgres[3882]: [78-1] db=our_db; user=app_writer; host=a.b.c.d; LOG: duration: 0.030 ms
When I set
log_duration = off
I avoid the unwanted durations of fast SELECTs, but also lose the durations of the data-modification queries.
* log all data-modification queries ( WITHOUT duration)
* log all queries that take longer than 1000 millisec (with duration)
Any suggestions ?
