Postgres Egress Optimizer

Guide the user through diagnosing and fixing application-side query patterns that cause excessive data transfer (egress) from their Postgres database. Most high egress bills come from the application fetching more data than it uses.

Work the four steps in order: diagnose which queries transfer the most data, analyze the codebase behind them, fix the anti-patterns, then verify nothing broke and the transfer actually dropped.

Step 1: Diagnose

Identify which queries transfer the most data. The primary tool is the pg_stat_statements extension.

Check if pg_stat_statements is available
