I requested in my previous mail as , planning to make ' autovacuum_vacuum_scale_factor' value to zero and autovacuum_vacuum_threshold value to 150 in postgreconf file.
Are you suggesting me to keep "autovacuum_vacuum_cost_limit" to zero or " autovacuum_vacuum_scale_factor" to zero or both? Please clarify me.

Please suggest me does it have any negative impact.
That's an excellent way to keep your database from functioning well.
Rather, raise autovacuum_vacuum_cost_limit, or, more aggressively, set autovacuum_vacuum_cost_delay to 0.
It is better to change the settings on individual busy tables than changing them globally.
