Perhaps it'd be better to vacuum this table much more often.
Each run took 5-6 hours, now it takes 2-3 hours after I've tweaked some
cost-based vacuum knobs.
But how often does it run?
One after another. Enough n_dead_tuples accumulate in between runs to
easily trigger that.
autovacuum_vacuum_scale_factor = 0.01
utovacuum_vacuum_threshold = 50
which means to run autovac when 1% of table size + 50 rows have been
updated or deleted.
But we can't make each autovacuum run run faster )
Currently I lowered this from 20ms:
autovacuum_vacuum_cost_delay = 10ms
And increased this from 200:
autovacuum_vacuum_cost_limit = 400
to make it finish in 1 hour rather than 3 hours.
Anything more than that and we risk impacting the performance of user
queries.
