Is there any other option to increase the speed of vacuum?

Just wanted to mention that maintenance_work_mem has a hardcoded upper
limit threshold of 1GB, so any size bigger than that to
maintenance_work_mem or autovacuum_maintenance_work_mem will leave it
effectively at 1GB.
There have been a few attempts the past few years on lifting that restriction.

Yes, upgrade to PG13.
