You need to run VACUUM more often, I think. Vacuuming out 219 million dead tuples is going to take a long time no matter how you look at it. If you vacuum more often, presumably there will be less for Vacuum to do each time. -- Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
