I am creating a temporary table in every function that I execute. Which I think is bout 100,000 temporary tables a day.
What is the command for vacuuming these 3 tables? Also I read about the auto vacuum of postgresql. How can I execute this auto vacuum or the settings in the configuration? -----Original Message----- From: Alvaro Nunes Melo [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 25, 2005 10:58 AM To: Christian Paul B.

We had a performance problem caused by them, and by not monitoring properly the database size. The pg_attribite, pg_class and pg_depend tables grow a lot. When I found out that this was the problem I saw some messages in the list archieve, and now the overall performance is great. What I do is daily run VACUUM FULL and REINDEX in this three tables.
