Why am I getting this error in DB?

To fix, vacuum more frequently, increase your max_fsm_pages and restart postgres, or upgrade to8.4, which automatically adjusts the FSM as needed under the covers.
How should I calculate the value of max_fsm_pages?
Thanks

Adding pages is cheap, so I would take the value it says you need (858976) and bring it up to the next power of 10. Especiallybecause changing it requires a restart. Of course, if you've been doing more or less updates/deletes than normal,adjust appropriately. Or just upgrade to 8.4, which doesn't need this knob anymore. :)
