Bad. That cycle seems like largely a waste of time. About the only thing it would do for you is ensure that relpages/reltuples are up to date, which seems like something we could possibly arrange for during the data import. > I did see if vacuumdb --analyze-only was somehow being throttled by the > vacuum settings, but saw the drive at 100% utilization analying a 36GB > table on a 24GB RAM server, so it seems I/O bound. I think it'd be good to explicitly set vacuum_cost_delay to 0 in the first pass, in the same way as you are forcing default_statistics_target, just in case somebody has a nondefault setting for that. The second pass could probably be allowed to use some higher delay setting. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
