Hi folks
Since it seems to come up a lot, I've added some info on the pitfalls of
VACUUM FULL to the wiki:
http://wiki.postgresql.org/index.php?title=VACUUM_FULL
It intentionally avoids going into details of why index bloat is
created, etc, and just tries to provide accessible advice as to better
solutions to the problems the user may be trying to address with VACUUM
FULL.
Comments?
