Autovacuum and relfrozenxid

Hi chaps,

I've noticed age(relfrozenxid) of some of our tables approaching vacuum_freeze_min_age, am I right in thinking this is nothing to worry about, autovacuum will just get invoked for those tables?

Even if it isn't, should I be tuning autovacuum so that those tables should have been vacuumed before it comes to this?

If there's no update activity on that table, this is to be expected.

Hmm, there is activity on the table, so I'm guessing I've not got autovacuumm tuned aggressively enough.
