Hi,
Does autovacuum daemon work on tables created with TEMPORARY syntax?
CREATE [ { TEMPORARY | TEMP } ] TABLE table_name ...
Regards,
Gnanam

No. It can't, because it's unsafe for any session except the creating
session to touch a temporary table. The performance optimizations used
for temp tables have that unfortunate side-effect.
