Why do I have holes in my pages? Postgres 8.4.12 "select ctid from big_table" on my master shows that pages have "holes" in them. Here is example for page 431665: (431665,2) (431665,5) (431665,8) (431665,11) (431665,14) (431665,17) (431665,20) (431665,23) Current DB size is 400 GB and it takes up 2.7 TB (on a 6.6 TB filesystem). So what happened to rows 1, 3 and 4 and so on? I have to size a database server for next year's budget, and I will have to explain to my mgmt why we have 400 GB taking up 2.7 TB. Help? Would appreciate a pointer to the appropriate section in the manual if this is documented.
