> * Create a bitmap of pages that need vacuuming
>
> Instead of sequentially scanning the entire table, have the background
> writer or some other process record pages that have expired rows, then
> VACUUM can look at just those pages rather than the entire table. In
> the event of a system crash, the bitmap would probably be invalidated.
