6479ee28c0 Fix typo on autovacuum readme. 2003-11-09 03:15:46 +00:00

62fdc3dd60 I have run pg_autovacuum on AIX, so that can, at least loosely, be
considered "tested."

And I have turned all of the 7.4 HISTORY material into DocBook for
release.sgml

7ceadb8fab Change some awkward wording in the pg_autovacuum README file. I really
only read this because of Niel :-)

I had to make a further change to this to take quotes off the 'last
ANALYZE' in order for it to not overquote the relation name, so
there's a _little_ work left to get it to play well.

I have deployed it onto several boxes that should be doing some
vacuuming over the weekend, and it is now certainly hitting pg_
tables.

I would like to present a CVS-oriented patch; unfortunately, I had to
change the indentation patterns when editing some of it :-(.  The
following _may_ be good; not sure...

9243664dd4 This patch updates pg_autovacuum in several ways:
* A few bug fixes
* fixes solaris compile and crash issue
* decouple vacuum analyze and analyze thresholds
* detach from tty (dameonize)
* improved logging layout
* more conservative default configuration
* improved, expanded and updated README

please apply and 1st convenience, or before code freeze which ever comes
first :-)

At this point I think I have brought pg_autovacuum and its client side
design as far as I think it should go.  It works, keeping file sizes in
check, helps performance and give the administrator a fair amount
flexibility in configuring it.

Next up is to do the FSM based design that is integrated into the back
end.

p.s. Thanks to Christopher Browne for his help.
