On: Postgres Explain Visualizer

Is this different (in a fundamental way) from https://explain.depesz.com/ ?

[sbergot → dpcx]

I would say that for a visualization tool, the visual language is pretty fundamental. So I would say yes, https://dalibo.github.io/pev2 is much more accessible than https://explain.depesz.com/ even if it hides some details.

Eh, except this tool seems to obscure some pretty useful information. It's certainly a nicer to look at thing, but the removed information about query portion detail is pretty vital to quickly working out issues.

What are you missing? I'm not sure it removes anything, if you click on the node you get the detailed info and to me it looks complete.

Sorry - my comment was a bit poorly worded. That information is now obscured away from easy visibility being behind a click - it is still there behind the click (not entirely removed) while being removed from a surface view.

Given the input, it can't be - it's just a different visualization. Great one byt the looks of it, too!

https://explain.depesz.com/ is an awesome tool too, and I especially love the "Explaining the unexplainable" series: https://www.depesz.com/tag/unexplainable/
