Thank you.
My 8.1.4 postgresql.conf does not contain such option. So
vacuum_cost_delay is off probably.
Since doc does not recommend any value, I planned to use 2000
Will value of 30 allow other clients to work when VACUUM FULL is running ?
No, as someone already noted the VACUUM FULL is blocking anyway (and
does not use this value at all).
Uncommented relevant values in postgresql.conf file are:
shared_buffers = 15000
work_mem = 512
I'd consider increasing this value a little - 0.5 MB seems too low to me
(but not necessarily).
maintenance_work_mem = 131072
fsync = on
effective_cache_size= 70000
Well, your server has 2GB of RAM and usually it's recommended to set
this value to about 60-70% of your RAM, so using 540MB (25%) seems quite
low. Anyway this is just a hint to PostgreSQL, it does not increase
memory consumption or so - it's just an estimate of how much data are
cached by kernel.
Anyway, I don't expect these values have significant effect in case of
the issue solved in this thread.

Tomas
