*>Yes, the size of pg_class table is of 5 GB. However, the existing row is
only 2380 only. It's got fragmented. I strongly believe you are incorrect
about the size of the pg_class table.The correct way to determine that size
is:SELECT n.nspname as schema, c.relname as table, a.rolname as
owner, c.relfilenode as filename, c.reltuples::bigint,
pg_size_pretty(pg_relation_size(n.nspname|| '.' || c.relname)) as
size, pg_size_pretty(pg_total_relation_size(n.nspname|| '.' ||
c.relname)) as total_size, pg_relation_size(n.nspname|| '.' ||
c.relname) as size_bytes, pg_total_relation_size(n.nspname|| '.' ||
c.relname) as total_size_bytes, CASE WHEN c.reltablespace =
0 THEN 'pg_default' ELSE (SELECT t.spcname
FROM pg_tablespace t WHERE (t.oid = c.reltablespace)
) END as tablespaceFROM pg_class c JOIN
pg_namespace n ON (n.oid = c.relnamespace) JOIN pg_authid a ON ( a.oid =
c.relowner ) WHERE relname = 'pg_class' ;*
* What does that show for reltuples and total_size ?*
