Oh, Thanks!
I updated the sentences using the descriptions of
"pg_stat_all_tables.seq_tup_read", "pg_stat_all_tables.idx_tup_fetch", and
"pg_stat_all_index.idx_tup_read".
- Number of rows returned by queries in this database
+ Number of rows returned by queries in this database. The rows
correspond to the live rows fetched by sequential scans and index entries
returned by scans on indexes
- Number of rows fetched by queries in this database
+ Number of rows fetched by queries in this database. The rows
correspond to the live rows fetched by index scans
