Re: stats for network traffic WIP

Hi, thanks, I'm still actively working on this patch. I've gotten the
traffic counters working when using SSL enabled clients (includes the
ssl overhead now) but I still have the walsender transfers under SSL
to work on.
I'll post an updated patch when i have it figured out.
Since the patch changes some views in pg_catalog, a regression test
fails .. i'm not sure what to do next. Change the regression test in
the patch, or wait until the review phase?

I was also thinking of adding global counters for the stats collector
(pg_stat* file read/write bytes + packets lost) and also log file io
(bytes written for txt and csv formats) .. any interest?
