Huh, reset what statistics? Autovacuum does not reset anything. What
statistics are you using? The number of dead tuples _should_ show as
zero on the stat system after a vacuum, certainly.
pg_stat_user_tables.[n_tup_ins|n_tup_upd|n_tup_del]. Hmm maybe I'm
doing this all wrong then. Is there a way to find the estimated dead
tuples from SQL, the same number autovacuum looks at?
