Hello all .
Can anyon eplz tell me how memory profiling is done in postgreSQL. I
read on a website I don't remember now that postgres creates a file
pgsql/data/base/dbname and stores memory profiling information in it.
postgres creates a folder with integer name in pgsql/base/ and in that
folder a binary file was when I run postmaster.
I want to know where does postgres save memory profiling information in
human readable format.
Thanx in advanc.
Regards
Rafaqat Ali

It does not.

It doesn't.
