Historically, VACUUM has just reported its new_rel_tuples estimate (the same thing it puts into pg_class.reltuples) to the stats collector. That number counts both live and dead-but-not-yet-reclaimable tuples. This behavior may once have been right, but modern versions of the pgstats code track live and dead tuple counts separately, so putting the total into n_live_tuples and zero into n_dead_tuples is surely pretty bogus. Fix it to report live and dead tuple counts separately. This doesn't really do much for situations where updating transactions commit concurrently with a VACUUM scan (possibly causing double-counting or omission of the tuples they add or delete); but it's clearly an improvement over what we were doing before.

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: http://www.postgresql.org/download 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 web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
