aresome releases that autovacuum was enabled by default and, up to now there is an easy way to estimate the number of
autovacuumworkers. I tune it observing if the number of slots are saturated for a period of time. I'm having a hard
timetrying to do this. I want to add a LOG message such as<br /> ><br /> > LOG: maximum number of autovacuum
