Fine. I'd recommend checking the other tables too - if this one was
bloated, it's likely there might be others.

Anyway, you should find out how this happened and fix it. This kind of
bloat is usually caused by either frequent changes (updated / deletes)
without sufficient vacuuming, or batch updates hitting many rows at once
(e.g. during maintenance).

Or maybe the vacuum was not running at all - I do remember there were
frequent issues with free-space map. See this:

That should give you a good idea.
