Greetings all..

  Quick question, hopefully someone can answer for me...  We have been
running PostgreSQL for over a year now, using php3 to interface our
web site to the db.. current main db size consists of roughly 3 million
line items (electronic components) split across 10 tables.  When we
do our nightly delete/vacuum/insert, the Elapsed times given for the
vacuum seem to have no bearing to reality...  could anyone explain,
first, what the numbers actually represent, and secondly, where are
they obtained?  Using "Elapsed xxx/yyy", what does 'xxx' and 'yyy'
mean?  Yes, the longer the vacuum takes, the greater the numbers are,
but they don't seem to reflect reality...

Thanks for any tips!
Brad
