That's why I thought having the bool fields made sense in the earlier versions of the view. Since autovacuum is dealing with 2 concepts: eligibility: is av enabled and is the table meeting thresholds score: The priority of how the eligible tables will be processed. So, while this could be explained in docs, I think it's better we report these fields. We might as well just call the view pg_stat_autovacuum in that case. What do you think? -- Sami
