我需要找出哪些表占用了最多的空间。

根据其他人的回答，我使用了这个问题:

select table_name, pg_size_pretty( pg_relation_size(quote_ident(table_name)) )
from information_schema.tables
where table_schema = 'public'
order by pg_relation_size(quote_ident(table_name)) desc

得到如下结果:

table_name              pg_size_pretty
--------------------------------------
trade_binance           96 GB
closs_v2_binance_stash  46 GB
closs_bitfinex_stash    5725 MB
trade_bitfinex          5112 MB
...
api_requests            0 bytes
trade_huobi             0 bytes

我应该买个更大的固态硬盘。

我喜欢以下说法:

SELECT 
  table_name, 
  pg_size_pretty( pg_total_relation_size(quote_ident(table_name))), 
  pg_total_relation_size(quote_ident(table_name))
FROM 
  information_schema.tables
WHERE 
  table_schema = 'public'
ORDER BY 
  pg_total_relation_size(quote_ident(table_name)) DESC

你可以看到总大小在一个漂亮的格式，但它的顺序也是正确的。

这可以很容易地从psql控制台完成。

表大小:\dt+ 数据库大小\l+ 索引大小:\di+

对于表大小，首先使用\c db_name连接数据库。

请注意:上面不会按OP要求的大小排序，但它仍然可以提供帮助。

 select uv.a tablename, pg_size_pretty(uv.b) sizepretty 
 from (select tb.tablename a, pg_table_size('schemaname.'||tb.tablename::text) b 
        from pg_tables tb 
        where tb.schemaname ilike 'schemaname' 
        order by 2 desc
       ) uv

您可以获得总关系大小和关系大小，这可能取决于您的表关系。 下面是如何获取数据库中的前100个表:

SELECT schemaname                                    AS table_schema,
       relname                                       AS table_name,
       PG_SIZE_PRETTY(PG_TOTAL_RELATION_SIZE(relid)) AS total_size,
       PG_SIZE_PRETTY(PG_RELATION_SIZE(relid))       AS data_size,
       PG_SIZE_PRETTY(PG_TOTAL_RELATION_SIZE(relid) - PG_RELATION_SIZE(relid))
                                                     AS external_size
FROM pg_catalog.pg_statio_user_tables
ORDER BY PG_TOTAL_RELATION_SIZE(relid) DESC,
         PG_RELATION_SIZE(relid) DESC
LIMIT 100;

select table_name, pg_relation_size(quote_ident(table_name))
from information_schema.tables
where table_schema = 'public'
order by 2

如果你有多个模式，这将显示模式公共中所有表的大小，你可能想使用:

select table_schema, table_name, pg_relation_size('"'||table_schema||'"."'||table_name||'"')
from information_schema.tables
order by 3
