I've changed the limits for freezing options a while back, so you can now set autovacuum_freeze_max as low as 100000 (best set vacuum_freeze_table_age accordingly). You'll have to come up with a workload that doesn't overwrite all data continuously (otherwise there'll never be old rows), but otherwise it should now be fairly easy to test that kind of scenario.
