Hi,

I have a couple of questions regarding pgbench. I'm new to PostgreSQL and databases in general, so these might be very trivial questions. 

1. Is it necessary to initialize pgbench(-i option) before every run to get consistent results?

2. The vacuuming process after initialize consumes time, what are the ill effects of disabling post-initialize vacuuming?

Thanks,
Anirudh
