Re: autovacumm not working ?

Alvaro,

I changed autovacuum parametrs for this specific table in pg_autovacuum

insert into pg_autovacuum (vacrelid,enabled,vac_base_thresh, vac_scale_factor, anl_base_thresh, anl_scale_factor,
vac_cost_delay, vac_cost_limit, freeze_min_age, freeze_max_age)
values ( (select oid from pg_class where relname='t_ais_position'), True, 100, 0.01 , 100, 0.02, -1, -1, -1, -1 )

Should I somehow let autovacuum deamon know about new table configuration or above insert is enough ?

Did you reload (pg_ctl reload) after changing the postgresql.conf
settings? Also note that you can alter values for a specific table by
putting them in the pg_autovacuum table.
