Hello,

Even though I run vacuumdb -a -f every night with no exceptions or problems,
my database size remains 5.6 GB. After I do a dump/restore, the new
database size is 4.0 GB. How could that be possible? That's a significant
amount of space. If I can clean up my existing databases by 30%, I'd be in
much better shape.

Has anyone else noticed this?

Thanks,
~DjK
