Thank you. I'll try that. I was able to change the PgBackendStatus struct to hold a "percentage of completion" field, which shows up when calling the pg_stat_get_activity function. As I said in a previous mail, the progress indicator gives very good estimates for the simple queries I need. If I can come up with something that is good in general I'll post it. I'm reading some papers about the argument (mostly the ones listed in http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Query_progress_indication). -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
