It's been a while since I did any testing with LWLOCK_STATS defined,
so I thought it might be about time to do that again and see how
things look. Here's how they looked back in July:

Interesting.

A couple of weeks ago I wrote a little patch that's similar to LWLOCK_STATS, 
but it prints out % of wallclock time that is spent acquiring, releasing, or 
waiting for a lock. I find that more useful than the counters.

Here's the patch, I hope it's useful to others. It uses timer_create() and 
timer_settime(), so it probably won't work on all platforms, and requires 
linking with -lrt.

I have just written up a systemtap script to observe
lock statistics.

It shows acquire counts, wait counts and
total waiting time for each lwlock every 5 seconds.

Is this useful for pg developers?
