Well, you should definitely turn on log_statement across the whole
installation so that you have a complete record of all SQL commands
being issued. Make sure the log includes timestamps and PIDs.
I would suggest adding a simple probe for duplicate records to the
vacuum script. Maybe something like
set enable_indexscan to off;select constname,fid,count(*) from a_constants_strgroup by constname,fid having count(*) >
1;
(The indexscan off bit is just paranoia --- I think that an indexscan
might mask the presence of multiple copies of what's supposedly a unique
key.) Do this just before and just after the vacuum full command. That
will at least nail down whether vacuum full is creating the dups, and
once we see it happen the trace of the day's SQL commands may give some
ideas where to look.
