You'll have to provide a lot more details if you want people to help 
you. How do you bulk load the data? What kind of log messages do you 
normally get in the PostgreSQL log related to bulk loading?

Autovacuum or autoanalyze should not interfere with loading data, even 
if it runs simultaneously.
