That's a good one --

  You could also set 'log_min_duration_statement = 1000 '

    (This logs all statements taking 1 second or more into the logfile),
then do a 'tail -f ' on the latest log in the pg_log folder.   The lower you
set log_min_duration_statement, the more overhead you place on your database
(this could be significant, so be careful).
