What this offers is *SOME* idea of how much updating work a particular
transaction did.  It's a bit worse than you suggest:

 - If replication triggers have captured tuples, those would get
   counted.

 - TOAST updates might lead to extra updates being counted.

But back to where you started, I'd anticipate 7 inserts, 7 deletes,
and 7 updates being counted as something around 21 updates.

And if that included 5 TOAST changes, it might bump up to 26.

If there were replication triggers in place, that might bump the count
up to 45 (which I chose arbitrarily).

Why not send separate numbers of tuple inserts/updates/deletes, which we
already have from pgstats?


We only have them for the entire database. The purpose of this is just a guesstimate about what data volume to expect if I were to select all log from a particular transaction.

This datum isn't critical, just handy for the overall feature to be useful.
