We're running perfsonar on a group of our servers, and while doing some maintenance work found that we




  • get giant logfiles under /var/log/postgresql

  • table bloat on the database of the perfsonar scheduler


I assume the toolkit is using table locking when it does ANYTHING on the database, and always cancels the autovacuum run:

A manual run of vacuum analyze roughly halved the use of disk space under /var/lib/postgresql/9.6/main/base/ ...



I've found several web pages talking about autovacuum tuning, but I'm wondering if it wouldn't make sense to disable autovacuum and run a vacuum analyze from a cron job.



Is there a best practice/recommendation for this kind of situation?



And maybe ask the perfsonar project to clean up their code in the long run ;}
