try to find parameters to avoid DB growth.
Show your work:
1) How did you determine the bloat number?
2) How did you determine there are 0 dead tuples?
3) Define high load.
4) Postgres version?
5) What are your autovacuum settings?
I think we need to tweak the autovacuum settings and maybe limit the volume of
data that can be written to the DB.
That will need to happen on client end.
Is there any setting in postgres that would allow to write only certain volume?
For example, limit the amount of data that can be written to a table to
100MB/minute.

Hi everyone,
I would like to configure the autovacuum in a way that it runs very

Why?
What is the problem you are trying to solve?
settings on my table:
alter table mytable set (autovacuum_vacuum_scale_factor = 0.0);
alter table mytable set (autovacuum_vacuum_cost_delay = 0.0);
alter table mytable set (autovacuum_vacuum_cost_limit = 10000);
alter table mytable set (autovacuum_vacuum_threshold = 1);
I do a lot of updates on a single tuple and I would expect that the
autovacuum would start basically after each update (due to
autovacuum_vacuum_threshold=1). But the autovacuum is not running.
Is it possible to configure postgres to autovacuum very aggressively
(i.e. after each update-statement)?
Thanks in advance &
Best regards,
Manuel
