The table has 32.4 million rows. autovacuum_analyze_scale_factor is 0.1. autovacuum_vacuum_scale_factor is 0.2. We run a nightly VACUUM ANALYZE. Deletes are rare. Normal operations don't update more than a few thousand rows per day. I know that normal operations never cause an autovacuum of this table. Perhaps if there was a way to share this information with PostgreSQL.... -Kevin
