The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference:      6484
Logged by:          Charlie Neo
Email address:      cneo@accessdata.com
PostgreSQL version: 9.0.6
Operating system:   Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise
Description:=20=20=20=20=20=20=20=20

During heavy database loading, "pgstat wait timeout" is showing up in the
logs. When this happens pgstat.stat file stop updating. Stats in
pg_stat_user_tables also stop updating. Resulting in autovacuum not
triggering and greatly degrades performs. Killing the stats collection
process causing it to re-spawn does not help, as it will quickly go back
into the same state without any new stats collected.
