Hi all: we have a table which receives frequent daily updates and deletes on the order of 100-600k. The overall row length is approximately 80m. This table has 50 indexes and 303 columns and is quite frequently queried by humans and applications.

I've been in the habit of using pg_repack maybe once a month on this table because I can't quite figure out why querying gets bogged down. The vacuum and analyze thresholds are set such that the table is both auto vacuumed and analyzed every night.
 
1. You're absolutely positive that the VACUUM and ANALYZE complete every night?
2. Nightly may not be often enough.
