It is possible for VACUUM to scan no pages at all, if the visibility map
shows that all pages are all-visible. In this situation VACUUM has no new
information to report about the relation's tuple density, so it wasn't
changing pg_class.reltuples ... but it updated pg_class.relpages anyway.
That's wrong in general, since there is no evidence to justify changing the
density ratio reltuples/relpages, but it's particularly bad if the previous
state was relpages=reltuples=0, which means "unknown tuple density".
We just replaced "unknown" with "zero". ANALYZE would eventually recover
from this, but it could take a lot of repetitions of ANALYZE to do so if
the relation size is much larger than the maximum number of pages ANALYZE
will scan, because of the moving-average behavior introduced by commit

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the file HISTORY. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at http://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
