Hi, everyone.
I saw some people talking about the reindex command and I read in the docs the one reason to use reindex is when a table is bloated.
But how do I know when a table is bloated?


You could use PGSTATTUPLE extension, which you could read about here:

Does auto-vaccum do the reindex process for us?
