Uh, here is a report of a similar problem from March 6, 2018: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/flat/C44C73BC-6B3A-42E0-9E44-6CE4E5B5D601%40ebureau.com#C44C73BC-6B3A-42E0-9E44-6CE4E5B5D601@xxxxxxxxxxx I upgraded a very large database from 9.6 to 10.1 via pg_upgrade recently, and ever since, the auto vacuum has been busy on a large legacy table that has experienced no changes since the upgrade. If the whole table had been frozen prior to the upgrade, would you expect it to stay frozen? It sure smells like we have a bug here. Could this be statistics collection instead? -- Bruce Momjian <bruce@xxxxxxxxxx> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + As you are, so once was I.
