So, I've got loads of databases and I'd really like some way to see what the last actual modification time was for them. I can't just check the time stamp on the file in the database directory as autovacuum fudges that and trying to match up values for either last_autovacuum or last_autoanalyze in pg_stat_all_tables/indexes with the files' time stamps is no good as the time stamp on a file that was last written to by autovacuum is for when autovacuum stopped writing to it whereas the values in pg_stat_all_tables/indexes are from when autovacuum started the given operation and the difference between the two can vary with the size of the table.

Am I missing something obvious here? If not, has anyone come up with a reliable way to do this?
