Thanks for the detailed reply, no tables have custom settings.
I need to make it clear once again that all autovac/analyze work as
expected when n_live_tup matches reality, i.e. when analyze has been run
on them since last reset.
A way to fix this is to simply analyze the whole database. Before doing
that, while n_live_tup starts from basically 0 and grows based on DB
activity, these usual calculations of 10-20% table size for
vacuum/analyze don't work. They don't trigger autovac for most tables,
or do it much much later.
