The following documentation comment has been logged on the website: Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/13/pgstattuple.html Description:
pgstattuple works on some non-table relations, such as indexes. However it does not work reliably on hash indexes. It works on some, but on others it reports a scary warning: "index contains unexpected zero page at block, Hint: Please REINDEX it." The REINDEX works (makes it possible to use pgstattuple again), but as more records are added to the index, the same error will eventually reoccur. The problem is not with the index, but that pgstattuple doesn't support it properly. You should use pgstathashindex instead.
