52.27. pg_stats#

The viewpg_stats provides access to the information stored in thepg_statistic catalog. This view allows access only to rows ofpg_statistic that correspond to tables the user has permission to read, and therefore it is safe to allow public read access to this view.

pg_stats is also designed to present the information in a more readable format than the underlying catalog — at the cost that its schema must be extended whenever new slot types are defined forpg_statistic.

Table 52.27. pg_stats Columns

Column Type

Description

schemanamename (referencespg_namespace.nspname)

Name of schema containing table

tablenamename (referencespg_class.relname)

Name of table

attnamename (referencespg_attribute.attname)

Name of column described by this row

inheritedbool

If true, this row includes values from child tables, not just the values in the specified table

null_fracfloat4

Fraction of column entries that are null

avg_widthint4

Average width in bytes of column's entries

n_distinctfloat4

If greater than zero, the estimated number of distinct values in the column. If less than zero, the negative of the number of distinct values divided by the number of rows. (The negated form is used whenANALYZE believes that the number of distinct values is likely to increase as the table grows; the positive form is used when the column seems to have a fixed number of possible values.) For example, -1 indicates a unique column in which the number of distinct values is the same as the number of rows.

most_common_valsanyarray

A list of the most common values in the column. (Null if no values seem to be more common than any others.)

most_common_freqsfloat4[]

A list of the frequencies of the most common values, i.e., number of occurrences of each divided by total number of rows. (Null whenmost_common_vals is.)

histogram_boundsanyarray

A list of values that divide the column's values into groups of approximately equal population. The values inmost_common_vals, if present, are omitted from this histogram calculation. (This column is null if the column data type does not have a< operator or if themost_common_vals list accounts for the entire population.)

correlationfloat4

Statistical correlation between physical row ordering and logical ordering of the column values. This ranges from -1 to +1. When the value is near -1 or +1, an index scan on the column will be estimated to be cheaper than when it is near zero, due to reduction of random access to the disk. (This column is null if the column data type does not have a< operator.)

most_common_elemsanyarray

A list of non-null element values most often appearing within values of the column. (Null for scalar types.)

most_common_elem_freqsfloat4[]

A list of the frequencies of the most common element values, i.e., the fraction of rows containing at least one instance of the given value. Two or three additional values follow the per-element frequencies; these are the minimum and maximum of the preceding per-element frequencies, and optionally the frequency of null elements. (Null whenmost_common_elems is.)

elem_count_histogramfloat4[]

A histogram of the counts of distinct non-null element values within the values of the column, followed by the average number of distinct non-null elements. (Null for scalar types.)

range_length_histogramanyarray

A histogram of the lengths of non-empty and non-null range values of a range type column. (Null for non-range types.)

This histogram is calculated using thesubtype_diff range function regardless of whether range bounds are inclusive.

range_empty_fracfloat4

Fraction of column entries whose values are empty ranges. (Null for non-range types.)

range_bounds_histogramanyarray

A histogram of lower and upper bounds of non-empty and non-null range values. (Null for non-range types.)

These two histograms are represented as a single array of ranges, whose lower bounds represent the histogram of lower bounds, and upper bounds represent the histogram of upper bounds.


The maximum number of entries in the array fields can be controlled on a column-by-column basis using theALTER TABLE SET STATISTICS command, or globally by setting thedefault_statistics_target run-time parameter.
