Anything which starts a transaction and doesn't need to use a transaction-lifetime snapshot plus SIRead locks to achieve truly serializable behavior should probably be ignoring default_transaction_isolation and forcing READ COMMITTED. I would think that should include the autovac launcher. Probably *any* of the background processes which can get a start a transaction should force READ COMMITTED. -Kevin
