Each table and index is stored in a separate file. For ordinary relations, these files are named after the table or index's filenode number, which can be found in pg_class . relfilenode . But for temporary relations, the file name is of the form t BBB _ FFF , where BBB is the process number of the backend which created the file, and FFF is the filenode number. In either case, in addition to the main file (a/k/a main fork), each table and index has a free space map (see Section 66.3 ), which stores information about free space available in the relation. The free space map is stored in a file named with the filenode number plus the suffix _fsm . Tables also have a visibility map , stored in a fork with the suffix _vm , to track which pages are known to have no dead tuples. The visibility map is described further in Section 66.4 . Unlogged tables and indexes have a third fork, known as the initialization fork, which is stored in a fork with the suffix _init (see Section 66.5 ).
