I'd be a little concerned that having autovacuum tuned down to run so
infrequently might result in massive table bloat - which could be even
worse than than the original stats file problem. Keep an eye out for
any table(s) that used to be small but become unexpectedly larger over
the next few days, and if you see any then decrease the naptime again.
