The following documentation comment has been logged on the website: Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/10/routine-vacuuming.html Description:
Hi All, I have a doubt about the vacuum_freeze_min_age explanation here; https://www.postgresql.org/docs/10/routine-vacuuming.html "vacuum_freeze_min_age controls how old an XID value has to be before rows bearing that XID will be frozen. Increasing this setting may avoid unnecessary work if the rows that would otherwise be frozen will soon be modified again, but decreasing this setting increases the number of transactions that can elapse before the table must be vacuumed again." Shouldn't the "Increasing" and "decreasing" words there interchange the places? Isn't decreasing value for vacuum_freeze_min_age causes vacuum to freeze tuples soon due to reduced age? So it reduces number of transactions that can elapse before the table must be vacuumed. Please let me know if my understanding is incorrect. Cheers, Sanjaya.
