Re: work_mem

You can show any or all settings with the command SHOW.

show work_mem;
show all;

How many times the amount of work_mem has been allocated currently cannot be shown this way. Any sort operation running currently allocates it. So it is not identical with the number of current queries, because queries can allocate it several times.
