Hi to all those patient postgres-novice-question-answering-people.
My vacuum tells me:
"NOTICE: number of page slots needed (508096) exceeds max_fsm_pages (350000)
HINT: Consider increasing the configuration parameter "max_fsm_pages" to a value over 508096."
But my reference manual says: "max_fsm_pages can range fro 20k to 200k pages."
Do I miss out on something, maybe the unit? Or is the hint misleading?
Thanks, Sunyx.
