At my company we just used this to check a specific table in our database and noticed that the index_size was wrong.
Turns out the query used to pull that information is slightly off.
According to PostgreSQL docs https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/catalog-pg-index.html
indrelid
isThe OID of the pg_class entry for the table this index is for
since the
indexoid
is used to calculate size by giving it as the parameter topg_relation_size
, that returns the size of the whole table and not just the index.The fix is to use
indexrelid
which isThe OID of the pg_class entry for this index
.
