You probably don't need to run VACUUM FREEZE. VACUUM FREEZE will thrash the disks much more than normal VACUUM. We're improving that somewhat in 8.3, but the basic issue is that VACUUM FREEZE cleans out more dead rows and so will dirty more data blocks. Are you concurrently running DDL, Truncate or CLUSTER? That will interfere with the operation of VACUUM. -- Simon Riggs EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq
