We are trying to run down some performance differences between our production system (where we run a VACUUM FULL every night on nearly every table) and our test system (where we have stopped doing the VACUUM FULL, but still do VACUUM ANALYZE). For large (>1 million rows) tables which have a pretty high turn-over (average life span of a row is 3 days), should there be any query performance differences whether you VACUUM FULL or not? -- Jeff Boes vox 269.226.9550 ext 24 Database Engineer fax 269.349.9076 Nexcerpt, Inc. http://www.nexcerpt.com ...Nexcerpt...
