RE: pg_upgrade —link does it remove table bloat

@Adrian Klaver,
I was concerned with the 1.4 value of tbloat and wastedbytes value, then again the last autovacuum was at 2020-02-13 02:25:22.533372-05 and I took this snapshot at 3:44PMEST.  So it may be ok, what do you think?


current_database | schemaname |                 tablename                 | tbloat | wastedbytes |                     iname                     | ibloat | wastedibytes

Thinking it may be left over from before the pg_upgrade and auto vacuum tuning.

What values are you getting?

The script you are using comes from this:

https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fbucardo.org%2Fcheck_postgres%2Fcheck_postgres.pl.html%23bloat&amp;data=01%7C01%7Cjralph%40affinitysolutions.com%7C6ead29e3b0bf4238f50e08d7b0c1fd0b%7Cfbf1a257f1104fc19456b0ca3038c6f0%7C1&amp;sdata=XugOdnmx%2BcElhEKTPqL30cjIKEDUyYHl8WvD75r82G8%3D&amp;reserved=0

"If you want to output the bloat ratio instead (how many times larger the relation is compared to how large it should be),..."

So I'm pretty sure bloat is where tbloat > 1.0.
