I'm not sure if there is a way.
I would think detailed enough logs should show it up but that may have
to be at debug level I am guessing.
The only one I would think of is to check the stats - I would use
pgAdmin and check the row counts on a table (these show up after a
vacuum) before and after you know a number of rows have been inserted
and see if that updates after a couple of minutes.
