Yes, autovacuum is better.

I am a fossil from 7.1.3 days.

Do you not recommend autovacuum?

Once per day dump database to disk.
Once per day do a vacuum full.
That should be plenty.

Since there are 1440 minutes per day, you are only looking at 288
transactions per day.  Not exactly a taxing transaction load.

Hi,
I have a small data base ~ 10 tables. each table get
insert/update/delete few times a day. postgresql is running for a
month.

The load will increase in the near future: insert/update/delete
activity will be at least one in 5 minutes.

What maintenance should I need to do?

Thanks,
Mark.
