+
+ COLLECT_STARTCOLLECTOR (boolean)
+
+ Controls whether the postmaster should start the statistics-collection
+ subprocess. This is on by default, but may be turned off if you
+ know you have no interest in collecting statistics. This option
+ can only be set at postmaster start.
+
+
+
+
+
+ COLLECT_RESETONPMSTART (boolean)
+
+ If on, collected statistics are zeroed out whenever the postmaster
+ is restarted. If off, statistics are accumulated across postmaster
+ restarts. The default is on. This option
+ can only be set at postmaster start.
+
+
+
+
+
+ COLLECT_QUERYSTRING (boolean)
+ COLLECT_BLOCKLEVEL (boolean)
+ COLLECT_TUPLELEVEL (boolean)
+
+ These flags determine what information backends send to the statistics
+ collector process: current queries, block-level activity statistics,
+ or tuple-level activity statistics. All default to off. Enabling
+ statistics collection costs a small amount of time per query, but
+ is invaluable for debugging and performance tuning.
+
+
+
+
DEBUG_ASSERTIONS (boolean)
transaction isolation level
- DEFAUL_TRANSACTION_ISOLATION (string)
+ DEFAULT_TRANSACTION_ISOLATION (string)
Each SQL transaction has an isolation level, which can be
+
+ PASSWORD_ENCRYPTION (boolean)
+
+ When a password is specified in CREATE USER or
+ ALTER USER without writing either ENCRYPTED or
+ UNENCRYPTED, this flag determines whether the password is encrypted.
+ The default is off (do not encrypt the password), but this choice
+ may change in a future release.
+
+
+
+
TRANSFORM_NULL_EQUALS (boolean)
Specifies the amount of memory to be used by internal sorts
- and hashes before resorting to temporary disk files. The value
+ and hashes before switching to temporary disk files. The value
is specified in kilobytes, and defaults to 512 kilobytes. Note
that for a complex query, several sorts and/or hashes might be
running in parallel, and each one will be allowed to use as
+
+ VACUUM_MEM (integer)
+
+ Specifies the maximum amount of memory to be used by
+ VACUUM to keep track of to-be-reclaimed tuples.
+ The value is specified in kilobytes, and defaults to 8192 kilobytes.
+ Larger settings may improve the speed of vacuuming large tables
+ that have many deleted tuples.
