Thank you …
Are the calculations for triggering autovacuum dependent upon statistics generated by auto-anaylyze. In other words, if autoanalyze does not run at all, will autovac be able to run its math for threshold (updates & deletes) & scale factor (table rows) to do its thing?
My understanding from the documentation is that it does not need autoanalyze stats.
Thanks

Can you give an example ?
If it's an empty inheritence parent (relkind=r), then it won't trigger
autovacuum/analyze thresholds (but you should analyze it manually).
Note that relkind=p "partitioned" tables don't have entries at all.

If it's never DELETEd from, then it won't trigger autovacuum (but may trigger
autoanalyze).
