Hackers,
I've run into a couple of occasions lately where I really wanted
pgstattuple on a production server in order to check table/index bloat.
However, in the production environment at a large site installing a
contrib module can involve a process which takes days or weeks.
Is there some reason why the stattuple functions aren't just available
as core functions? Are they unsafe somehow?
