Hi guys,
I have a table that had 55 million records in it. I deleted about 15
million of them, because I had to free up disk space.
Yesterday, I started VACUUM. Now my problem is that it takes too long to
VACUUM the table: it is still running with my CPU in the red zone...
Is there a way to speed thing up?
PS I created 4 indexes on the tables. I cannot cancel the query... It
keeps running. Otherwise I thought of dropping the indexes, vacuum the
table and re-create the indexes...
Any advice from the gurus?
Cheers!
Wim De Hul
