OK, here is a much more detailed output. I still don't quite understand why simple queries like counting the number of rows in a table should take minutes to complete. Surely, any performance enhancement to be had by vacuuming is closely related to indexes which, in turn, are closely related to sorting and searching. A simple count of 365590 does not involve indexes (or does it??) and should not take minutes. Should I be forcing the way postgresql plans my queries? Here is my first attempt at vacuum that got nowhere and I had to cancel it. ----------psql session start---------- vacuum verbose analyze job_log; INFO: vacuuming "job_log" INFO: index "job_log_id_pkey" now contains 10496152 row versions in 59665 pages DETAIL: 0 index row versions were removed. 28520 index pages have been deleted, 20000 are currently reusable.
