Your last sentence is not very clear to me. "But it only does this as long as no index updates are necessary.". Do you mean to say it does only for HOT updates? If so, I don't think that is the case, it can do it during a sc

I think you can check n_dead_tup, n_mod_since_analyze from pg_stat_all_tables, and see if the numbers are high, then it would be a good idea to perform vacuum. I found some query on the net which might help you. See https://gist

It appears like we are sacrificing speed in some cases, but it is not actually true. In the current heap, we have to modify a current row, add a new row, and then WAL log diff of both rows (or in some cases need to write both rows) and rou

To me that was obvious, but you are right, it is better to be clear. I have added a below sentence my blog post. "I would like to mention that the above results don't mean that zheap will be better in all cases than heap. For exa
