In 8.2 your problem is likely that autovacuum is single worker (or that
you have the idle-in-transaction problem).
In 8.4 you should not have this problem, if you do increase your
autovacuum_max_workers (and make sure you don't have an
idle-in-transaction problem).

Pg doesn't provide this by default, you would have to install mrtg etc..
