7.8 Worker Processes

This feature allows up to two background worker processes to reside. This information is displayed in the statistics view pg_stat_activity when it needs to be processed by a worker process. The worker processes added by this feature are those with column backend_type values of "user profile status writer" and "user profile status sender".

These processes may wait on the wait event "UserProFileWorkerMain" of type "Activity".
