Hi,I like your idea,It would be even better if the weights could be taken
according to the larger tables

Hi!

I agree it is a good idea to shift the table list. Although vacuuming
larger tables first
is a questionable approach because smaller ones could wait a long time to
be vacuumed.
It looks like the most obvious and simple way is that the first table to be
vacuumed
should not be the first one from the previous iteration.

Thanks for your feedback.

I ended up with adding a guc configuration that may support different vacuum
strategies. I name it as `autovacuum_vacuum_strategy` but you might have
a better one. For now it support only two strategies:

1. Sequential: Tables are vacuumed in the order they are collected.
2. Random: The list of tables is rotated around a randomly chosen
       pivot before vacuuming to avoid always starting with the same
       table, which prevents vacuuming starvation for some tables.

We can extend this strategy like prioritization and whatever algorithms
in the future.

Subject: [PATCH v1] Introduce autovacuum vacuum strategy

Add a new configuration option `autovacuum_vacuum_strategy` to
control the order in which tables are vacuumed by the autovacuum
process. Two strategies are supported for now:

1. Sequential: Tables are vacuumed in the order they are collected.
2. Random: The list of tables is rotated around a randomly chosen
   pivot before vacuuming to avoid always starting with the same
   table, which prevents vacuuming starvation for some tables.

The default strategy is `sequential`.

+1 to this: it's a good solution to a tricky problem. I would be a -1 if
this were not a GUC.

Yes, it is masking the problem, but maybe a better way to think about it is
that it is delaying the performance impact, allowing more time for a manual
intervention of the problematic table(s).

Cheers,
Greg

I question how the user will gauge the success of setting the strategy
to "random"? They may make
it random by default, but fall into the same issues and revert it back
to the default strategy.

But also, the key as you mention is "manual intervention" which
requires proper monitoring. I will
argue that for the two cases that this proposal is seeking to correct,
we already have good
solutions that could be implemented by a user.

Let's take the "spinning" case again. If a table has some sort of
problem causing
vacuum to error out, one can just disable autovacuum on a per-table
level and correct
the issue. Also, the xmin horizon being held back ( which is claimed
to be the most common cause,
and I agree with that ), well that one is just going to cause all your
autovacuums to become
useless.

Also, I do think the starvation problem has a good answer now that
autovacuum_max_workers
can be modified online. Maybe something can be done for autovacuum to
auto-tune this
setting to give more workers at times when it's needed. Not sure what
that looks like,
but it is more possible now that this setting does not require a restart.

I would have a lot more faith in this discussion if there was any kind
of external solution that had gained popularity as a general solution,
but this doesn't seem to be the case (and trying to wedge something in
the server will likely hurt that kind of research.

As an example, the first fallacy of autovacuum management is the idea
that a single strategy will always work. Having implemented a number
of crude vacuum management systems in user space already, I know that
I have run into multiple cases where I had to essentially build two
different "queues" of vacuums (one for xids, one for bloat) to be fed
into Postgres so as not to be blocked (in either direction) by
conflicting priorities no matter how wonky things got. I can imagine a
set of gucs that we could put in to try to mimic such types of
behavior, but I imagine it would take quite a few rounds before we got
the behavior correct.

Yeah, I tend to agree with you that the xmin horizon hold back will
make autovacuums to become useless for all tables.

But I have a question, let me quote Andres' comment on slack first:

```quote begin
It seems a bit silly to not just do some basic prioritization instead,
but perhaps we just need to reach for some basic stuff, given that

If randomness is not working, ISTM that the prioritization will not benefit
the "spinning" case too, am I right?

Good to know, thanks.

One case I didn't mention is that some corruption due to vacuuming the
same table might starve other tables two, randomness gives other tables
some chances to be vacuumed. I do admit that multi vacuum workers
can eliminate this issue a little bit if the corrupted table's vacuum progress
lasts for some time, but I think randomness is much better.

Hi, are we still lacking test coverage for this on v17 and up?

Yep. I have been procrastinating on swapping all this back into my
brain. I'll start working on it today. I think I just take the
reverted test and make the UPDATE a DELETE, set mwm 64 kB, make the
table have 9000 rows and maybe consider using your:

delete from test where ctid::text like '%,2__)';

But, unfortunately, to be able to commit it, I'll have to remember
everything about this. I'll begin now...

(Swapping this part back in my brain as well...) I actually don't
think we need that where clause anymore since mwm can be super low
now, and it's a bit mysterious what it was trying to accomplish. Maybe
we can just use the lowest fill factor to reduce WAL -- having a few
dozen pages should push it over the memory limit, regardless of how
many dead tuples are on each pages.

Test in attached patch seems to do the job on 32 bit and 64 bit when tested.

Subject: [PATCH] Test that vacuum removes tuples older than OldestXmin

If vacuum fails to prune a tuple killed before OldestXmin, it will
decide to freeze its xmax and later error out in pre-freeze checks.

Add a test reproducing this scenario to the recovery suite which creates
a table on a primary, updates the table to generate dead tuples for
vacuum, and then, during the vacuum, uses a replica to force
GlobalVisState->maybe_needed on the primary to move backwards and
precede the value of OldestXmin set at the beginning of vacuuming the
table.

This test is coverage for a case fixed in 83c39a1f7f3. The test was
originally committed to master in aa607980aee but later reverted in
efcbb76efe4 due to test instability.

The test requires multiple index passes. In Postgres 17+, vacuum uses a
TID store for the dead TIDs that is very space efficient. With the old
minimum maintenance_work_mem of 1 MB, it required a large number of dead
rows to generate enough dead TIDs to force multiple index
vacuuming passes. Once the source code changes were made to allow a
minimum maintenance_work_mem value of 64kB, the test could be made much
faster and more stable.

Great!

I don't see this on pg16 -- If this is good to have, maybe worth
calling out in the commit message as a difference?

Minor quibble: I wouldn't say it is deliberately optimized (at least
not on local memory) -- it's more of a consequence of pointer-sizes
and the somewhat arbitrary choice to set the slab block sizes to hold
about X number of chunks. For v19, it might be good to hard-code the
block sizes to reduce the possibility of difference and allow a
smaller table.

+my $nrows = 9000;

Running the queries in isolation on an -m32 build shows running 5
index scans, and I found 4000 runs 3 index scans both with and without
asserts. Of course, I'm only using the normal 8kB block sizes. In any
case, 9000 is already a lot less than 200000, so we can go with that
for v17 and v18.

Yea, I'm not 100% sure how useful it is because with
hot_standby_feedback on (which we need for the standby to hold the
horizon back when it is connected) we shouldn't really see recovery
conflicts. I think I added it at some point for debugging issues while
writing the test. Perhaps I'll remove it now, as it may be more
confusing than anything else.

Thanks for the clarification. I'll clean this comment up in the next
version I post after resolving the issue I mention below.

What's odd is that I'm seeing now that I need at least 8000 tuples to

which is more than you are reporting and more than I remember having
needed for 64-bit builds when I tested this last year with your patch
applied.

What's even odder is that I tested on a 32-bit build as well (
-Dc_args='-m32' -Dc_link_args='-m32' --auto-features=disabled) and it
doesn't require any more than 8000 tuples to get > 1 pass of index
vacuuming.

So, currently, on both 32 and 64 bit builds and nrows == 8000, I get 2
passes of index vacuuming.

I can't tell what I'm doing wrong. Could you give your full build
details? There's no chance that you made a change to the TIDStore that
would make it possible for any configuration to have the same size
TIDStore on a 32 and 64 bit build, right?

Thanks for providing this! I actually did see the same number of index
scans as you with 9000 rows.

So, I think I figured out why I was seeing the test hang waiting for
pg_stat_progress_vacuum to report an index count.

Using auto_explain, I determined that the cursor was using an index-only
scan with lower row counts. That meant it pinned an index leaf page instead
of a heap page and the first round of index vacuuming couldn't complete
because btree index vacuuming requires we acquire a cleanup lock on every
leaf page.

I solved this by disabling all index scans in the cursor's session.

I attached the updated patch which passes for me on 32 and 64-bit builds.
We've managed to reduce the row count so low (1000-2000 rows) that I'm not
sure it matters if we have a 64-bit and 32-bit case. However, since we have
the large block comment about the required number of rows, I figured we
might as well have the two different nrows.

I'll have to do some more research on 14-16 to see if this could be a
problem there.

I also disabled prefetching, concurrent IO, and read combining for vacuum
-- it didn't cause a problem in my local tests, but I could see it
interfering with the test and potentially causing flakes/failures on some
machines/configurations. That means I'll have to do a slightly different
patch for 17 than 18 (17 doesn't have io_combine_limit).

Finally, I disabled parallelism as a future-proofing for having heap vacuum
parallelism -- wouldn't want a mysterious failure in this test in the
future.

Subject: [PATCH v2] Test that vacuum removes tuples older than OldestXmin

If vacuum fails to prune a tuple killed before OldestXmin, it will
decide to freeze its xmax and later error out in pre-freeze checks.

Add a test reproducing this scenario to the recovery suite which creates
a table on a primary, updates the table to generate dead tuples for
vacuum, and then, during the vacuum, uses a replica to force
GlobalVisState->maybe_needed on the primary to move backwards and
precede the value of OldestXmin set at the beginning of vacuuming the
table.

This test is coverage for a case fixed in 83c39a1f7f3. The test was
originally committed to master in aa607980aee but later reverted in
efcbb76efe4 due to test instability.

The test requires multiple index passes. In Postgres 17+, vacuum uses a
TID store for the dead TIDs that is very space efficient. With the old
minimum maintenance_work_mem of 1 MB, it required a large number of dead
rows to generate enough dead TIDs to force multiple index
vacuuming passes. Once the source code changes were made to allow a
minimum maintenance_work_mem value of 64kB, the test could be made much
faster and more stable.

Interesting find! I wondered how it would look if the cursor referred
to a extra non-indexed column, but the above seems fine and the whole
thing probably easier to reason about with only a single column.

> I attached the updated patch which passes for me on 32 and 64-bit builds. We've managed to reduce the row count so low (1000-2000 rows) that I'm not sure it matters if we have a 64-bit and 32-bit case. However, since we have the large block comment about the required number of rows, I figured we might as well have the two different nrows.

It seems backwards to have the comment influence the code -- the
comment should document decisions around the code. 2000 is already
100x smaller than pg16, so it's not really buying us much to be
platform-aware. The first two sentences in the comment seem fine.
After that, I'd just say:

# We choose the number of rows to make sure we exceed
maintenance_work_mem on all platforms we support, but we also want it
to be small so that the test runtime is short.

Last I checked, our regression tests fail on block sizes other than
8kB. If we ever need to cater to that, this comment covers that
eventuality as well.

Maybe it's possible to phrase this so it's true regardless of whether
we adopt that or not?
"PARALLEL 0 shouldn't be necessary, but guards against the possibility
of parallel heap vacuuming"

Yea, it was a fun little investigation. We could eliminate the
possibility of an index-only scan by adding another column and
referring to it, but I think forcing a sequential scan explicitly
makes the test clearer.

You're right. It is odd to have the location of the comment affect the
code :). I've changed it as you suggested.

I've adopted this phrasing.

Attached v3 has all of the above. I think the only thing that is
needed to be changed for the backpatch to 17 is removing
io_combine_limit.

Subject: [PATCH v3] Test that vacuum removes tuples older than OldestXmin

If vacuum fails to prune a tuple killed before OldestXmin, it will
decide to freeze its xmax and later error out in pre-freeze checks.

Add a test reproducing this scenario to the recovery suite which creates
a table on a primary, updates the table to generate dead tuples for
vacuum, and then, during the vacuum, uses a replica to force
GlobalVisState->maybe_needed on the primary to move backwards and
precede the value of OldestXmin set at the beginning of vacuuming the
table.

This test is coverage for a case fixed in 83c39a1f7f3. The test was
originally committed to master in aa607980aee but later reverted in
efcbb76efe4 due to test instability.

The test requires multiple index passes. In Postgres 17+, vacuum uses a
TID store for the dead TIDs that is very space efficient. With the old
minimum maintenance_work_mem of 1 MB, it required a large number of dead
rows to generate enough dead TIDs to force multiple index
vacuuming passes. Once the source code changes were made to allow a
minimum maintenance_work_mem value of 64kB, the test could be made much
faster and more stable.

Okay, pushed to 17 (which does have io_combine_limit, I forgot) and
master. Now, let's see if the buildfarm is happy. Thanks for all your

* [PATCH v19 3/6] Refactor index_concurrently_create_copy() for use with REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

* [PATCH 2/4] Refactor index_concurrently_create_copy() for use with REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).
@ 2025-12-04 17:20 Antonin Houska <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 63+ messages in thread

From: Antonin Houska @ 2025-12-04 17:20 UTC (permalink / raw)

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

* [PATCH 2/5] Refactor index_concurrently_create_copy() for use with REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).
@ 2025-12-09 18:44 Antonin Houska <[email protected]>

From: Antonin Houska @ 2025-12-09 18:44 UTC (permalink / raw)

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

* [PATCH 2/6] Refactor index_concurrently_create_copy() for use with REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).
@ 2026-01-08 16:47 Antonin Houska <[email protected]>

From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-01-08 16:47 UTC (permalink / raw)

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

* [PATCH 2/6] Refactor index_concurrently_create_copy() for use with REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).
@ 2026-01-12 16:30 Antonin Houska <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 63+ messages in thread

From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-01-12 16:30 UTC (permalink / raw)

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

* [PATCH 2/6] Refactor index_concurrently_create_copy() for use with REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).
@ 2026-01-22 08:23 Antonin Houska <[email protected]>

From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-01-22 08:23 UTC (permalink / raw)

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

* [PATCH v33 2/5] Refactor index_concurrently_create_copy() for use with REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-01-27 10:48 UTC (permalink / raw)

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

* [PATCH 2/6] Refactor index_concurrently_create_copy() for use with REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

* [PATCH v35 2/5] Refactor index_concurrently_create_copy() for use with REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).
@ 2026-02-16 19:49 Antonin Houska <[email protected]>

From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-02-16 19:49 UTC (permalink / raw)

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

* [PATCH 2/5] Refactor index_concurrently_create_copy() for use with REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

* [PATCH 2/4] Refactor index_concurrently_create_copy() for use with REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).
@ 2026-03-02 14:30 Antonin Houska <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 63+ messages in thread

From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-03-02 14:30 UTC (permalink / raw)

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

* [PATCH 2/5] Refactor index_concurrently_create_copy() for use with REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).
@ 2026-03-05 18:58 Antonin Houska <[email protected]>

From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-03-05 18:58 UTC (permalink / raw)

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

* [PATCH 2/5] Refactor index_concurrently_create_copy() for use with REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

* [PATCH v40 1/4] Refactor index_concurrently_create_copy() for use with REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).
@ 2026-03-09 10:35 Antonin Houska <[email protected]>

From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-03-09 10:35 UTC (permalink / raw)

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

* [PATCH 2/5] Refactor index_concurrently_create_copy() for use with REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).
@ 2026-03-09 10:35 Antonin Houska <[email protected]>

From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-03-09 10:35 UTC (permalink / raw)

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

* [PATCH 1/7] Refactor index_concurrently_create_copy() for use with REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).
@ 2026-03-11 13:15 Antonin Houska <[email protected]>

From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-03-11 13:15 UTC (permalink / raw)

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.

* [PATCH v43 1/7] Refactor index_concurrently_create_copy() for use with REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).
@ 2026-03-11 13:15 Antonin Houska <[email protected]>
  0 siblings, 0 replies; 63+ messages in thread

From: Antonin Houska @ 2026-03-11 13:15 UTC (permalink / raw)

This patch moves the code to index_create_copy() and adds a "concurrently"
parameter so it can be used by REPACK (CONCURRENTLY).

With the CONCURRENTLY option, REPACK cannot simply swap the heap file and
rebuild its indexes. Instead, it needs to build a separate set of indexes
(including system catalog entries) *before* the actual swap, to reduce the
time AccessExclusiveLock needs to be held for.
