 How restart of database server influances autovacuum process ?

I think that somewhere on this mailing list I read that autovacuum in such case looses some important information
and after database server restart will not behave as expected until VACUUM ANALYZE is executed.
Is it true ?

Did you reload (pg_ctl reload) after changing the postgresql.conf
settings?  Also note that you can alter values for a specific table by
putting them in the pg_autovacuum table.
