You're confusing terminology. VACUUM FULL is not the same as
a "full database vacuum". The latter is simply expressing that
vacuuming individual tables won't fix the problem. A VACUUM
FULL is not required.
You really just need to wait it out. Although at the rate the
number seems to be dropping, you may be in for trouble.
