1: Turn on autovacuum.
2: Look up the thread on nagios plugins for pgsql and rip the query
for checking bloat out of it, or alternatively, use NAGIOS I guess. :)
monitor your db for bloat, and if autovacuum isn't keeping up either
set it to be more aggresive, or schedule manual vacuums for the tables
that need it.
