Hi List, When auto vacuum is over the dead tuple are seems to get reduced, but physical size of database do not decreases. We are using Postgres 8.1.3 and this are the auto vacuum settings.
autovacuum = on # enable autovacuum subprocess? autovacuum_naptime = 900 # time between autovacuum runs, in secs autovacuum_vacuum_scale_factor = 0.1 # fraction of rel size before autovacuum_analyze_scale_factor = 0.05 # fraction of rel size before autovacuum_vacuum_cost_delay = 100 # default vacuum cost delay for How do I make the physical size of the DB smaller without doing a full vacuum. Can anybody help me out in this. -- Regards Gauri
