With the update_process_title parameter set to off some PostgreSQL processes still change their ps title to a different name than the default. I appreciate this setting came about for performance reasons which the logger, wal writer, autovacuum, and stats collector would not have but I actually require the default and patched init_ps_display() to skip changing the name.
It just surprised me that the titles still changed a single time. I (stupidly?) installed PostgreSQL into a hostile environment which didn't like this and decided to kill the processes as a result. Unfortunately, I cannot change the environment. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
