It may not actually vacuum any tables at all. To see if it vacuums anything you must change log_min_messages to debug2. (On 8.3 we've added a new config parameter log_autovacuum which will allow you to control it better). -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org/
