ok, what i am sharing, DO NOT DO IT.
it is just to answer why it is not working :)
postgres=# alter table pg_catalog.pg_largeobject_metadata set (AUTOVACUUM_VACUUM_COST_DELAY = 1);
ERROR: permission denied: "pg_largeobject_metadata" is a system catalog
postgres=# show allow_system_table_mods;

ALTER TABLE
but you can always run vacuum manually on the table.
vacuum (verbose,analyze) pg_catalog.pg_largeobject_metadata;

VACUUM

I would like to start a more aggressive autovacuum on pg_catalog tables like pg_largeobject.
So I tried as a superuser:
# alter table pg_catalog.pg_largeobject_metadata set (autovacuum_vacuum_scale_factor = 0, autovacuum_vacuum_threshold = 5000);
ERROR: permission denied: "pg_largeobject_metadata" is a system catalog
(How) Is it possible to change such table attributes on pg_catalog tables?
Thanks, Markus
