auto vacuum question

Hi All -

I am working to tune the auto vacuum in 8.4 and 8.2. I am finding that
some of the tables are not getting vacuumed even though they exceed
analyze/vacuum threshold. Do you know where auto vacuum process looks to
get the number of rows deleted/updated/inserted?
pg_stat_user_tables have only the cumulative stats. I am interested in
finding the most current ( incremental stats).

Thanks a lot.

Dinesh

In 8.2 your problem is likely that autovacuum is single worker (or that
you have the idle-in-transaction problem).

In 8.4 you should not have this problem, if you do increase your
autovacuum_max_workers (and make sure you don't have an
idle-in-transaction problem).

Pg doesn't provide this by default, you would have to install mrtg etc..
