In the Postgresql docs Appendix K (<https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/limits.html>) there is a list of the limitations:

The line 'relations per database' mean the total number of relations for each row in the database, or the number of declared Foreign Keys ?

For exemple, 2 tables with a Foreign Key to join both count as 1 relation in the database ? Or as 1 \* number rows (1.000 rows equals 1.000 relations) ?

Thanks a lot for your help :)
