+ A database administrator frequently wonders, <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">What is the system
+ doing right now?</span>”</span>
+ This chapter discusses how to find that out.
+ </p><p>
+ Several tools are available for monitoring database activity and
+ analyzing performance. Most of this chapter is devoted to describing
+ <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span>'s cumulative statistics system,
+ but one should not neglect regular Unix monitoring programs such as
+ <code class="command">ps</code>, <code class="command">top</code>, <code class="command">iostat</code>, and <code class="command">vmstat</code>.
+ Also, once one has identified a
+ poorly-performing query, further investigation might be needed using
+ <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span>'s <a class="link" href="sql-explain.html" title="EXPLAIN"><code class="command">EXPLAIN</code></a> command.
+ <a class="xref" href="using-explain.html" title="14.1. Using EXPLAIN">Section 14.1</a> discusses <code class="command">EXPLAIN</code>
+ and other methods for understanding the behavior of an individual
+ query.
