Does the full > database vacuum not handle each individual table? Wait, is this a regular vacuum against the whole database, or a vacuum FULL against the whole database?

It is generally best followed by a reindex to clean up the indexes. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
