Subject: Improve documentation in setting FSM
Date: Fri, 22 Apr 2005 23:28:48 -0400 (EDT)
Message-ID: <[email protected]> (raw)
I have applied the following patch suggesting people look at the last
few lines of a database-wide VACUUM VERBOSE to determine if the current
setting is appropriate. Also mention the NOTICE that is printed if it
is too low.
