Re: Autovacuum on by default?

Summarizing this thread, I see support for the following:

- autovacuum set to on by default in 8.2.

- stats_row_level also defaults to on.

(Perhaps stats_block_level should also default to on so it's not inconsistent, 
seeing that everything else in on, too.)

- Delayed vacuum and delayed autovacuum will stay disabled.

- Scale factor set to 0.08 (vacuum) and 0.04 (analyze) (?)  (formerly 0.4 and 
0.2)

- Leave base thresholds alone (pending further analysis that might remove them 
altogether?)
