I recollect reading something few years ago, but not able to place my finger on the issue. IIRC it was something to do
withthe inserting session creating a HOT bloat because vaccum could not do anything on that live session.  I will try
tosearch for that post.  But the symptoms were similar to yours.  Initially good performance and then getting slower
andslower.
 

Q: Is it straight insert or you do select or updates also along with insert.
