pg_class before the vacuum full for that table
relfilenode | relname | relpages | reltuples -------------+----------+----------+------------- 18376 | messages | 69472 | 1.60644e+06
how was possible accumulate 6000 pages wasted on that table?
Between these two calls: [2005-02-22 05:25:03 CET] Performing: VACUUM ANALYZE "public"."messages" [2005-02-22 15:20:39 CET] Performing: VACUUM ANALYZE "public"."messages"
1768 rows where inserted, and I had 21578 updated for that rows ( each row have a counter incremented for each update ) so that table is not so heavy updated
I'm running autovacuum with these parameters: pg_autovacuum -d 3 -v 300 -V 0.1 -S 0.8 -a 200 -A 0.1 -D
shall I run it in a more aggressive way ? May be I'm missing something.
Well without thinking too much, I would first ask about your FSM settings? If they aren't big enought that will cause bloat. Try bumping your FSM settings and then see if you reach steady state.
