Hi  Team

Can we generate a fill factor for tables that have delete ops ?

Does the fill factor really work and help to minimize the bloat for tables that have delete ops?

I have parent table with weekly partitions So for every week 50 to 60 gb of bloat generates and autovacuum params already in place for child tables 

This confuses me.  It seems that you are deleting old data instead of just dropping the old partitions.

What did I misunderstand?
