The most likely cause is checkpoint activity. Enable checkpoint logging

Instead of running vacuum from cron or some other scheduler, turn on 
autovacuum and set it to run aggressively. You will reduce the impact of 
vacuum if you run it *often* (every few minutes if not more frequently) 
and do so using autovacuum.

Best results will be had on PostgreSQL 8.4 or above.

Please read this if you need to follow up, so you include enough
