Should I run a vacuum alone? It shows up in both variants for me. Oh, hang on. I think it only shows up if you're logged in with a superuser - table owner is not enough.

Probably not enough - that's for a single table, no? > Secondly, the max_fsm_relations -- if I have about 150 "relations" in > my database (relations as per PGSQL lingo) then can this figure be, > say, 200? Or does this have to match max_fsm_pages? No need to match. If you have 150 relations, 200 is a reasonable value. But once you get the proper output from the vacuum command, it tells you that as well (74 in my example above) As for your other question,how to view connections. Use "SELECT * FROM pg_stat_activity".
