Hi, Maybe i'm wrong but this should be easily solved by an autovacuum_no_truncate_empty_pages or an autovacuum_empty_pages_limit GUC/reloption. Just to clarify the second one autovacuum will allow until that limit of empty pages, and will remove excess from there We can also think in GUC/reloption for next_extend_blocks so formula is needed, or of course the automated calculation that has been proposed -- Jaime Casanova www.2ndQuadrant.com Professional PostgreSQL: Soporte 24x7 y capacitación Phone: +593 4 5107566 Cell: +593 987171157 -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
