Autovacuum, too often?

Hi chaps,

Our legacy apps have some permanent tables that they use for tempory data and constantly clear out, I've kicked the
developersand I intend to eradicate them eventually (the tables, not the developers). 

These tables are constantly being autovacuumed, approximately once a minute, it's not causing any problem and seems to
bekeeping them vacuumed.  But I'm constantly re-assessing our autovacuum settings to make sure they're adequate, and no
matterhow much I read up on autovacuum I still feel like I'm missing something. 

I just wondered what peoples opinions were on handling this sort of vacuuming? Is that too often?

The general autovaccum settings set more for our central tables are threshold 500, scale_factor 0.2. I guess I could
setspecific settings for the tables in pg_autovacuum, or I could exclude them in there and run a vacuum from cron once
aday or something. 

Here's a typical log message:

2008-09-19 11:40:10 BST [12917]: [1-1]: [user=]: [host=]: [db=]:: LOG:  automatic vacuum of table

Any comments would be appreciated.
