Hi All -
 
                I have turned on the auto vacuum on the slave and for some reason the db is getting bloated up. The master size is only 1G and the slave is at 9.2GB now. I did cluster on couple of tables also. did any one run into this situation? Can you please help?

Plain vacuum does not file system size of relations. It just marks dead
spaces are writable. If you haven't vacuumed for a long time, it
probably means that you have lots of space to be reused.
