There is not any easy way at the moment.
Hmm ... I wonder how hard it would be to teach EXPLAIN ANALYZE to show
the runtime expended in each trigger when the statement is of a kind
that has triggers. We couldn't break down the time *within* the
triggers, but even this info would help a lot in terms of finger
pointing ...
Seq Scan on ... (nn.nnn ms)
Trigger foo: nn.mmm ms
Trigger bar: nn.mmm ms
Total time: nn.mmm ms
