Re: [HACKERS] Kill a Long Running Query
Please don't cross-post to multiple mailing lists. And pgsql-hackers is not the correct list for basic usage questions. And long end-of-mail disclaimers are not generally appreciated.

Using the log_min_duration_statement configuration variable. -- Heikki Linnakangas EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings

First. please do not cross-post like this. Pick the correct list and use it. Second, this query definitely does not belong on the -hackers list. Third, please find a way of posting to lists that does not include a huge disclaimer and advertisements. If that is added by your company's mail server, you should look at using some other method of posting such as gmail. Fourth, please read our excellent documentation. It contains the answers to your questions, I believe. cheers andrew ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq
