Has anyone else seen this error?
[postgres@preventdb02 londiste]$ cat /data/pgsql/data/pg_log/postgresql-Tue.log
WARNING:  pgstat wait timeout

There have been periodic reports of these wait timeouts messing with the statistics results returned by the database for a while now; some examples:

http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2009-07/msg00081.php
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2009-12/msg00175.php

I just ran into one of the myself recently, wasn't able to reproduce though. There seems to be something subtle going wrong in statistics collection, nobody seems exactly sure what it is yet though.

I wouldn't get stressed about it unless these become frequent, in which case we'd probably want to ask you to collect more data about your system to try and catch more information about one of them when it shows up.
