Re: Tracing used SQL statments

Set

   log_statement = true

in your postgresql.conf file, then stop & restart the postmaster.
Queries will be printed in the postmaster's output (or via syslog, if
you're using that).

See
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/view.php?version=7.3&idoc=0&file=runtime-config.html#LOGGING
for details.
