AFAICS the difference maybe related to this between 8.0 and 8.1 is the
introduction of autovacuum. But seems you didn't turn it on. Do you observed
only writes increased or both read/write? If the latter, that might be an
unoptimized query plan invloves seqscan ... Can you find out what's the
writes on?
