How does this apply to autovacuum's long running vacuum commands ? Cause
I have one table where the last vacuum took 15 hours :-)
It's true that now after migration to 8.1 I do the vacuuming manually
for that one and disabled it for autovacuum, but I still could have
other tables which would vacuum in more than 5 minutes (that would be my
statement_timeout for ordinary processes).
