Is it time to turn on autovacuum by default in 8.2? I know we wanted
to be on the side of caution with 8.1, but perhaps we should evaluate
the experiences now. Comments?
I'm in favor of this, but do we want to turn on vacuum_delay by default
as well?
I thought about this, might be a good idea as it will mitigate the
impact of vacuums, however it will also slow down vacuums, I'm a bit
concerned that it won't be able to keep up on really large database, or
that it'll fall really far behind after vacuuming a big table.
Also, if we do enable it, what is a good default?
