A pattern that has worked very well for other people is to have two 
separate tables (or partitions). One contains today's data, and the other 
contains historic data that is no longer updated. Once a day, transfer the 
data between the partitions, and the historic data partition will not need 
vacuuming.

Some changes to your code will be needed however.
