Do you know any use case for enabling log_duration? Like 3rd party tools
for instance.
I find this parameter pretty much useless (in opposite to
log_min_duration_statement) as it does not show the query text, so besides
having just the timing logged it is of no use in troubleshooting and often
causes huge overhead. Am I missing something?

Note
The difference between enabling|log_duration|and
settinglog_min_duration_statement
<https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/runtime-config-logging.html#GUC-LOG-MIN-DURATION-STATEMENT>to
zero is that exceeding|log_min_duration_statement|forces the text of the
query to be logged, but this option doesn't. Thus,
if|log_duration|is|on|and|log_min_duration_statement|has a positive value,
all durations are logged but the query text is included only for statements
exceeding the threshold. *This behavior can be useful for gathering
statistics in high-load installations.*
