I as a DBA, suggested to perform VACUUM FULL and RE-INDEXING + ANALYZE to ensure that IO performance and Indexing performance would be good
Read http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/VACUUM_FULL before you run VACUUM FULL. You probably don't want to do that. A multi-gigabyte table can easily be unavailable for several hours if you execute VACUUM FULL against it. CLUSTER is almost always faster.
