Reindexing won't work, it would mean hours of downtime. I plan to move
the DB to 8.2 via slony in ~2-3 weeks, that should take care of the
bloating too.

Regarding upgrade, I have to use the CVS version because I have some
local patches to apply. Now what is more recommended, use the latest
version on the REL8_1_STABLE branch or stick with REL8_1_9 ? I checked
and there are quite a few changed files after REL8_1_9.

Thanks,
