Another strategy to look at is to make autovacuum more aggresive by putting entries for that one table into the pg_autovacuum table. I know that table exists in 8.3 but I don't remember if it exists in older versions or how it works there. But if you have that available you can make that one relation more aggresively autovacuumed without affecting the other relations vacuum scheduling. On 8.3 you can set individual cost delays, and all the other settings you'd need. If 8.2 doesn't support this, look at migrating just for that functionality alone. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
