Hi, probably this is a very frequenfly question... I read archivies of
this list but I didn't found a finally solution for this aspect. I'll
explain my situation.

PSQL version 8.1.3
configuration of fsm,etcc default
autovacuum and statistics activated

22 daemons that have a persistent connection to this database(all
connection are in "idle"(no transaction opened).

this is the vacuum output of a table that it's updated frequently:
database=# VACUUM ANALYZE verbose cliente;
INFO:  vacuuming "public.cliente"
INFO:  index "cliente_pkey" now contains 29931 row versions in 88 pages
DETAIL:  0 index pages have been deleted, 0 are currently reusable.

INFO:  analyzing "public.cliente"
INFO:  "cliente": scanned 559 of 559 pages, containing 533 live rows and 29398 dead rows; 533 rows in sample, 533 estimated total rows
VACUUM

database=# SELECT * from  pgstattuple('cliente');
 table_len | tuple_count | tuple_len | tuple_percent | dead_tuple_count | dead_tuple_len | dead_tuple_percent | free_space | free_percent 
-----------+-------------+-----------+---------------+------------------+----------------+--------------------+------------+--------------
   4579328 |         533 |     84522 |          1.85 |            29398 |        4279592 |              93.45 |      41852 |         0.91
(1 row)

The performance of this table it's degraded now and autovacuum/vacuum full
don't remove these dead tuples. Only if I do a CLUSTER of the table the tuples
are removed.

The same problem is on other very trafficated tables.

I think that the problems probably are:
- tune the value of my fsm/etc settings in postgresql.conf but i don't
understdand how to tune it correctly.
- the persistent connections to this db conflict with the
autovacuum but i don't understand why. there are no transaction opened,
only connections in "idle" state.

Tell me what do you think...

Regards,

Matteo
