It should be 4 tables - the shown log looks like there were more truncates?

Yes, performance was the initial reason to use truncate instead of
delete many years ago. But today the truncated tables usualy contain
exactly one row - quick measurements now show that it's faster to issue
delete instead of truncate in this case.
Again, many thanks for your invaluable advice!
