More specifically, I bet there's a huge number of completely empty
pages, which would be read by a seqscan but not an indexscan. VACUUM
FULL should fix it nicely, but it's odd that autovacuum isn't keeping
a lid on the file size. Maybe with so few live rows, it's confused into
thinking it doesn't need to vacuum the table often?
