For example work_mem is 4M and if I had 300 connections connected to dB the total memory requirement is 1.2 Gb.
So as per my understanding this 1.2 gb is not allocated as soon as 300 connections established, but it may vary from 0 to 1.2gb as per operations from client. Please confirm

Hi AllAs soon as client session is established work_mem will be allocated or only when sort happens for that particular session? Please advise how the internal behavior? This will help me to configure my database memory with high connectionsRegardsSasi

How many times the amount of work_mem has been allocated currently cannot be shown this way. Any sort operation running currently allocates it. So it is not identical with the number of current queries, because queries can allocate it several times.Am 31. März 2021 16:04:07 MESZ schrieb "Campbell, Lance" <lance@xxxxxxxxxxxx>:PostgreSQL 12
Is there a query that will tell us at any given time what amount of PostgreSQL memory is being used for work_mem?
Thanks,
