It doesn't really try to remove clog entries that are younger than
vacuum_freeze_table_age (see also vacuum_freeze_min_age). At two bits
per transaction, the general feeling is that eating the disk space is
better than forcing full-database vacuums more often. But if you're
hot to have the space released sooner, those are the knobs to frob.
