Sounds like a deadlock waiting to happen :-(
AFAIK the general practice is to just accept the fact that vacuum can't
remove recently-dead tuples. You should look into whether you can't
shorten your transactions --- very-long-running transactions create
other performance issues besides vacuum not removing stuff.
