>From the ToDo list: Vacuum: * Provide automatic running of vacuum in the background (Tom)
As of 7.2 we have lazy vacuum. The next logical step is setting up vacuum to run automatically in the background either as some type of daemon or as something kicked off by the postmaster. I am interested in working on this to do item, although I see it is assigned to Tom right now. First: is this something we still want (I assume it is since its in the todo.). Second: There was some discussion (http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2002-05/msg00970.php) about this not being neede once UNDO is on place, what is the current view on this?
