Hi I installed the open source ERP Opentaps which have *802* tables and
using PostgreSQL as backend, and also filled the tables with demo data.

When I browse the tables using PgAdmin3 I get messages saying that:*
The estimated row count on the table "some_table" deviates significantly
from the actual row count. You should run vacuum analyze.

*So I do it again and again with each table that throws me the message until
I get tired, then I went to the database's root and click on maintenance,
vacuum analyze.
Then a long process begin, after that I continue browsing the tables but I'm
still getting the messages, so I suppose that I'm not doing the vacuum
correctly.

What I want It's to make auto vacuums in a general way, NOT table by table
because there are 802, you know what I mean...

I edited my postgresql.conf like this, but I'm not sure if that's enough,
take a look please and give some feed back please:
