Um, you prepare the Weekly News every week; how could you have missed this?
Jan added adjustible delay settings for VACUUM which breaks it up into
interruptable chunks, and interferes much less with concurrent I/O activity.
This is a new feature -- I think you're just confused because Jan submitted
it less than 2 months after 7.4 was released.

However, Jan did have a second name for this if both you and Robert don't like
Lazy Vacuum, which is Vacuum Delay.
