Some Tip: take care to run routine vacuum as superuser ...

Hi folks,

here's some new tip for the maillist footers:

"if vacuum (from some scripts) doesnt seem to work, have a
look at the logfile - you're probably using the wrong login"

I just had to learn that's a nice pitfall, if you're trying to do
routine vacuum from some php scripts and logging in as someone who's
not the table owner ... I wondered why the db doesnt get faster, but
when vacuum'ing manually or from pgadmin, I had a gread speedup.
Enabling verbose query logging showed up the problem.

... yeah, yeah, ashes on my head ... I'm not getting younger ... ;-)
