copying -- as invoked via the COPY command (in general this means
inserting, though)
large -- probably anything with triple-digit row counts
class -- table, relation; in general rows, records, data, stuff

There are some disabled code fragments that take into account a "vacuum
daemon". It's even on the TODO list, but vacuum itself needs to be sorted
out first.
Sorry, no free lunch here, probably.
