FIX:
Nearly everything in shared memory is shared. It doesn't belong to a particular user but is for use by everybody.There are exceptions, where a data structure is used mostly by one user (such as the connection table and transaction table entries) but those are statically allocated at startup and allocated to an individual user on a temporary basis. Other exceptions are things like index cursors.The database doesn't track detailed information about shared memory usage or requirements by user. The database understands how much memory has been allocated, how much is used, and how much is free.There is no way to determine which connection allocated a particular data structure. Hardly any of them have "owner" elements.
