You can tell whether autovacuum is running by using SHOW autovacuum; Note that if you have a firewall of some sort stopping UDP messages from being transmitted inside your machine, the stats collector may not start, which may stop the autovacuum daemon from starting. If you're not seeing stat updates then there's probably something like that going on. Maybe the system has emitted a warning message at server start; check the logs. -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ PostgreSQL Replication, Consulting, Custom Development, 24x7 support
