Re: pg_autovacuum not doing anything

How do you know that it is not vacuuming or analyzing anything?

And which version of postgres did you build/acquire pg_autovacuum from?

It seems that in post-8.0 versions, there is almost no output by
default. You could try increasing the debug output using -d 1 or -d 2
on the command line to verify that any activity is occurring.
