How about counting the number of dead tuples examined and the number of live
tuples returned. As the ratio of dead tuples over live tuples visited
increases the table becomes a candidate for vacuuming.

Of course, my posting was about Point In Time Re
BA to protect the database from media loss just needs to set the

While it is true that you can't do binary searches on compressed indexes you
may get a large payoff with compressed indexes since the index fits in fewer
pages and so may be more efficiently cached in the buffer pool. Even a
small reduction in io load may compensate for the higher computational
