If I understood correctly, Josh was complaining about VACUUM sucking too
much of his disk bandwidth. autovacuum wouldn't help that --- in fact
would likely make it worse, since a cron-driven vacuum script can at
least be scheduled for low-load times of day. autovacuum is likely to
kick in at the least convenient times.
However, we have at this point got only speculative solutions to the
too-much-bandwidth problem. If we had something ready to go today,
I'd be as willing as the next guy to cram it into 7.4. I'm not willing
to go back into development mode for 7.4, though.
regards, tom lane
