Hello,

i’m currently working on a high Performance Database and want to make sure that whenever there are slow queries during regular operations i’ve got all Information about the query in my logs. So auto_explain come to mind, but the documentation explicitly states that it Comes at a cost. My Question is, how big is the latency added by auto_explain in percentage or ms ?

Best regards,

stephan
