Table: pg_telemetry_wal_log

This table logs the times and results of wal telemetry readings so that deltas can be calculated. At least one row must be present to get any useful data out of the wal_telemetry() function at all. If you get one telemetry entry a minute, over the course of a year you will get just over half a million entries. These are indexed on both epoch and timestamp so access is not impaired, but if you want ot purge, be careful to leave at least one entry at the end. You can also process these as a time series using WINDOW functions like lag.

View: relation_toast_size

This measures the amount of space in a relation's TOAST tables. These are populated when data exceeds what can be reasonably stored inline in the main heap pages. You would expect to see this non-zero where you have large fields being stored, particularly arrays of composite types. Performance-wise moving data to TOAST improves sequential scans where the data is not required (count(*) for example) at the cost of making the data that has been moved far more expensive to retrieve and process.

View: relation_total_size

This view provides basic information on relation size in PostgreSQL system tables (those in pg_catalog and information_schema). The inclusive metrics show the relation along with indexes and TOAST. The exclusiove metrics show without these things. The bytes metrics are intended for graph drawing, while the sizes are there for administrators who want to quickly query this information and make decisions.

Function: wal_telemetry()

Returns: SET OF record

Language: SQL

The wal_telemetry() function checks the current wal location and compares with the last entry in the pg_telemetry_wal_log. It then provides for you both current and last data, and the differences between them. These include bytes elapsed and seconds elapsed, and bytes per sec. The function is designed so that you can export delta information to a monitoring solution such as munin or prometheus without the latter having to know anything about lsn representation or losing information in the process. This function cnnnot be run on a replica though you can analyxe the wal logs.
