Slony is an open source replication system built for Postgres. But the real problem is that you are doing a vaccum full every day. This is highly invasive. Take a look at the postgres docs on Vacuuming the db. Analyze is best on a daily basis. If you have a lot of deletes, then try vacuum truncate. The postgres documentation describes the various vaccuum options and explains the merits of each. Hope that helps. Radhika -- It is all a matter of perspective.
