Hi,
Could you help me by explaining in simple words, as I am new to postgres.
What value of which parameter should I set and why.
I only have this one big table in the database of size 3113 GB with rows
7661353111.
Right Now the autovacuum setting for that table is set to
{autovacuum_enabled=true,autovacuum_vacuum_scale_
factor=0.2,autovacuum_analyze_scale_factor=0.2}
Please help.
Regards
Atul
