Robert Haas 32896c40ca Avoid having autovacuum workers wait for relation locks.
Waiting for relation locks can lead to starvation - it pins down an
autovacuum worker for as long as the lock is held.  But if we're doing
an anti-wraparound vacuum, then we still wait; maintenance can no longer
be put off.

To assist with troubleshooting, if log_autovacuum_min_duration >= 0,
we log whenever an autovacuum or autoanalyze is skipped for this reason.

Per a gripe by Josh Berkus, and ensuing discussion.

database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
