With the contrib autovacuum code  if you don't specify vacuum delay 
settings from the command line, then autovacuum doesn't touch them.  
Therefore (if you aren't specifying them from the command line), on 803, 
the vacuum delay settings should be the same for a cron issued vacuum 
and an autovacuum issued vacuum.  So if the vacuum delay settings are 
the problem, then it should show up either way.
