Re: vacuum full...

I used to run vacuum full in one of my bases, but now i'm not running
anymore vacuum full, just vacuum analyze in the past 1 month, but the number
of necessary pages is increasing every day, now it's in 311264... there is
any problem this get increasing?
When I runned Reindex few days ago, this number get not decreased.
I now that vacuum full reorders the relation, but it's the only thing that
it does?

Thnks,

Rafael Domiciano
