Well, I've been thinking a bit more and it seems a perfect fit in many
ways. None of the info we're talking about here takes any extra time to
calculate, it's all debates about what to log. So send it to the stats
collector and let it deal with it.
It should probably tie in with normal vacuum. We get requests from time
to time from people wanting to know the last time a table was vacuumed
(not autovacuumed) for example.
And it's probably a nice little sub-project someone can work on :)
Have a nice day,
