- [log_executor_stats](/parameters/log-executor-stats/): log_executor_stats — Writes executor performance statistics to the server log. Observed in PG9.0–19 Beta 3; its last measured boot default is off in PG19 Beta 3, with superuser context. This is a beta-snapshot fact and can change before PostgreSQL 19 GA.
- [log_parser_stats](/parameters/log-parser-stats/): log_parser_stats — Writes parser performance statistics to the server log. Observed in PG9.0–19 Beta 3; its last measured boot default is off in PG19 Beta 3, with superuser context. This is a beta-snapshot fact and can change before PostgreSQL 19 GA.
