Hi ,
I have version of PostgreSQL as given below:---
version
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PostgreSQL 8.1.2 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC gcc (GCC)
3.3.3 (SuSE Linux)
And it does't have any n_dead_tup columns in pg_stat_all_tables like this:
mydb=# \d pg_stat_all_tables
View "pg_catalog.pg_stat_all_tables"
Column | Type | Modifiers
---------------+--------+-----------
relid | oid |
schemaname | name |
relname | name |
seq_scan | bigint |
seq_tup_read | bigint |
idx_scan | bigint |
idx_tup_fetch | bigint |
n_tup_ins | bigint |
n_tup_upd | bigint |
n_tup_del | bigint |
In what situations table creates a new row instead of using deleted
marked tuples that's why size of table increases abnormally.
