Do you have any long-running transactions?
Rows can't be reclaimed while there are transactions active in which those rows are visible. So if you have
long-runningtransactions, those could be "locking" the deleted rows' space and prevent vacuum from re-using that space
fornew rows. That's one reason that could explain your database growth.
