the way autovacuum behaves on each table will depend very much on the
INSERT/UPDATE profile in that specific table

so it's not necessarilly a problem if a given table never gets vacuumed;
may be it does not need;

can you be more specific on

a) why do you say that that specific table does not get autovacuumed ?
what makes you say that ?
b) is your filesystem experiencing bloat (bloat means: postgres seems to
start eating up disk space like crazy after some days/weeks/months) ? is
it ?
c) do the logs say things regarding max_fsm_pages ?
d) what version of postgres is it ?
e) have a closer look at the "autovacuum_*" configuration directives...

Cheers
JOao
