We are attempting to turn off autovacuum but it keeps coming back. We can't afford the performance hit from vacuum while end users are accessing our system.

Postgresql Version:  8.3.3
OS:  Linux 2.6.18-53.el5PAE #1 SMP

Running PostgreSQL setting: sspg=# show autovacuum;
autovacuum
------------
off
(1 row)

pg.log Log Entries:
2008-08-26 15:24:50 GMTLOG:  autovacuum launcher started
-- and then we manually kill it
postgres 32371 0.0 0.1 1133768 23572 ? Ss 15:16 0:00 postgres: autovacuum worker process rollup_data_store
# kill 32371
2008-08-26 15:24:53 GMTFATAL: terminating autovacuum process due to administrator command

Does anyone know what will cause this bahavior for autovacuum?

Thank you in advance

-Jerry
