How much table bloat is acceptable before it affects performance in PostgreSQL? 

How big is the table? (For small tables, it doesn't matter.) How active is it?  How frequently are records updated?

Hi

Table size 100gb
I use pgstattuple_approx to get Table bloat is about 16gb as of now since after repack is done on 27th of January 
Fillfactor already in place
It's very critical application with updates on non partitioned table
