To be honest, it isnt my db, but I just have access to it ...
Either way, so I need to change the vacuum_Analyze_scale/threshold for the
original table ? But the value will be too high/low for the original table.
For example if my original table has 30,000 rows and my toasted has
100,000,000 rows. I want to analyze every 50K records in the toasted (by
the way, sounds legit ?) which is 0.05% of 100m. With this value it means
that every 0.05*30,000=1500 updated/deletes on the original table it will
run analyze on the original table which is very often...
Doesn't it seems a little bit problematic ?
