Works for me. They are clearly related, yet different and allow a straightforward explanation of their need and use. e.g. vacuum_freeze_min The latest TransactionId that will be "frozen" during a VACUUM is calculated by CurrentTransactionId - vacuum_freeze_min. vacuum_freeze_max The maximum age, calculated as distance from CurrentTransactionId, that will be allowed before a autovacuum will be forced for that database object. -- Simon Riggs EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match
