The problem is that your "immediate benefit" is to encourage people to do direct manual insertions into pg_autovacuum, which is something that we shouldn't be encouraging, because it's not the correct long-term solution. Or even short-term --- it seems reasonably likely to me that something could be done about building a decent API in the 8.4 cycle, which is the soonest we could entertain a proposal to put defaults on pg_autovacuum anyway. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
