I am sorry. I am late to this thread. Please do not think there is zero impact.

Thank you Matheus!

Based on the study, there's very little performance impact when enabling log_min_duration_statement, right?

Thank you
Nik

I wanted to capture all the DML statements executed in the database information (execution time, ).

Question:
Can anyone point me pros and cons on either of the approaches.

In my testing, I haven't found any performance degrade on application operations when enabled the additional logging (below logging).

Besides log_min_duration_statement, you can use tools like pg_stat_statements [1] and POWA [2]. POWA authors even did a comparison of performance impact of having log_min_duration_statement (to latter process with pgBadger), using POWA extension and nothing, see [3].
