Our application supports pg 8.4 onwards. The vacuums are run automatically by the application rather than requiring end users to enable autovacuum; the vacuums being performed are regular. -----Original Message----- From: Scott Marlowe [mailto:scott.marlowe@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, March 17, 2011 6:31 PM To: Voils, Steven M Cc: pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Primary key vs unique index On Thu, Mar 17, 2011 at 12:59 PM, Voils, Steven M <steve@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Thanks for the reply. I should have mentioned in the first post that we do delete significant amounts of the table which I thought was the cause of the bloat. We are already performing automatic vacuums nightly. Automatic regular vacuums? So you do or don't have autovac turned on? What version of pg are you running (8.3 or before, 8.4 or later?) Are your nightly vacuums FULL or regular vacuums? -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
