It's no longer there, as fsm was moved from memory (which was limited
by max fsm pages) to disk, which is limited by the size of your disks.
Most likely you aren't vacuuming aggresively enough. Lower
autovacuum_vacuum_cost_delay and raise autovacuum_vacuum_cost_limit,
and possibly raise max threads for vacuum works (forget the name)
