Hi All,
I noticed something strange today, and thought I should report it. I
vacuumed a database, and as expected, one of the table's size decreased
(other table were VACUUMed individually earlier); but o my astonishment, the
size of the UNIQUE KEY index on one of the columns increased.

That's normal. VACUUM FULL creates new index pointers for the tuples it
moves, which can lead to a bigger index. If it bothers, REINDEX will pack
the indexes tighter again.
That explains it...
