Fewer of what specific kind of WAL record?
All of the details about useful work done by VACUUM were identical
across versions. It was only the details related to WAL, buffers, and
CPU time that changed.
Perhaps I'm not thinking of something obvious. Maybe it's extra
VISIBILITY records? But I'd expect the number of VISIBILITY records to
match the number of pages frozen, given these particulars. VACUUM
VERBOSE at least shows that that hasn't changed.
