No, I'm not. I'm suggesting storing the query texts externally, in a
file. They usually use 1024 bytes of shared memory per entry,
regardless of how long the query text is. This would allow
pg_stat_statements to store arbitrarily large query texts, while also
giving us breathing room if we have ambitions around expanding what
pg_stat_statements can (optionally) track.

Having said that, I am still pretty sensitive to bloating pg_stat_statements.
