ok I will see what I can do about that. So I assume that the vacuumdb script handle this just does redundant vacuums / analyzes on shared tables so that it doesn't have a problem with this. If we can supress "redundant" vacuuming I think that would be a good thing as pg_autovacuum is supposed to make the required vacuuming as efficient as possible. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
