I managed, by extensive usage of temporary tables, to totally bloat pg_attribute. It currently has about 40000 pages with just 3000 tuples.
The only thing I could think of is VACUUM FULL, but from my former experience I guess it'll take maybe over an hour, effectively rendering the server unusable, because of the exclusive lock.
You can vacuum full a single table - shouldn't take an hour for just the one table. Unless your disk I/O is *constantly* running flat-out.
