"vacuum verbose output shown?" There wasn't any. [ digs about ... ] Oh. The version of the message that nabble sent to the postgresql lists was missing vital parts of what got posted at nabble: compare http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/1425639585904-5840782.post@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://postgresql.nabble.com/VACUUM-FULL-doesn-t-reduce-table-size-td5840782.html I've seen that before. I'm about ready to propose that we flat out ban messages from nabble to the PG lists; I'm tired of them wasting our time with this sort of BS. (FWIW, the output shown on nabble doesn't look materially different from what I see in HEAD. It also proves positively that the OP has uncommitted transactions blocking cleanup of known-dead rows. But we were just guessing at that over here.) regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
