It is by default for unusual activity. It can be for normal activity using the proper GUC settings, but we don't have a way to control that just for autovacuum yet, and given what we have in 8.2, I don't see a need to add more until users say they need more. -- Bruce Momjian [EMAIL PROTECTED] EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. + ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
