This says that you have 231 live tuples versus 55448 that were removed ---
in other words, less than one-half of one percent of your table was
current data. You need to vacuum this table a LOT more often than
you are doing.
You will need a VACUUM FULL and a REINDEX to get the table and index
physical sizes down to something reasonable, after which a more rigorous
schedule of plain vacuums ought to keep things in shape.
