Correction, pg_relation_size includes toast data.

I'm not sure why you are adding toast to table size, since pg_relation_size already does that.

This query might work better and faster for you.

SELECT n.nspname as schema,
             c.relname as table,
             a.rolname as owner,
             c.relfilenode as filename,
             c.reltuples::integer,
             pg_size_pretty(pg_relation_size( quote_ident( n.nspname ) || '.' || quote_ident( c.relname ) )) as size,
             pg_size_pretty(pg_total_relation_size( quote_ident( n.nspname ) || '.' || quote_ident( c.relname ) )) as total_size,
             pg_relation_size( quote_ident( n.nspname ) || '.' || quote_ident( c.relname ) ) as size_bytes,
             pg_total_relation_size( quote_ident( n.nspname ) || '.' || quote_ident( c.relname ) ) as total_size_bytes,
            CASE WHEN c.reltablespace = 0
                        THEN 'pg_default'
                        ELSE (SELECT t.spcname
                                     FROM pg_tablespace t WHERE (t.oid = c.reltablespace) )
                         END as tablespace
   FROM pg_class c
      JOIN pg_namespace n ON (n.oid = c.relnamespace)
     JOIN pg_authid a ON ( a.oid = c.relowner )
WHERE c.relname = 'sensor'
      AND n.nspname = 'devtest';

Getting rid of the useless join to pg_stat_all_tables would probably help;
there's a lot of computation in that view.
