After a VACUUM FULL of the table reported as the top responsible of bloat, performing the same request again still gives the same result (still that table is the top responsible of bloat): current_database | schemaname | tablename | tbloat | wastedbytes | iname | ibloat | wastedibytes ------------------+------------+-----------------------------------------+--------+-------------+------------------------------------------------------+--------+-------------- test | public | requests | 1.1 | 14565376 | requests_pkey | 0.4 | 0 test | public | requests | 1.1 | 14565376 | idx_whatever | 0.8 | 0 test | public | requests | 1.1 | 14565376 | idx_whatever2 | 0.6 | 0 ... A few investigations show that when tbloat is close to 1.0 then it seems not reliable, otherwise it seems useful. pg 8.4.7 -- Guillaume Cottenceau -- Sent via pgsql-performance mailing list (pgsql-performance@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-performance
