The database will provide you what relations are being used and how much. It will not tell you "which" user did the work. But again, if you are looking at controlling the instance itself that is an Operating system problem not a database problem. > > I understand that I should be able to get at least some IO data by > querying pg_stat_* views, but what about getting numbers about CPU > usage?

I don't care what user is abusing the system. I care what process is abusing the system and what that process is doing. I can get that now between the statistics collection of PostgreSQL and the standard operating system tools already provided to me. Sincerely, Joshua D.
