Which leads us to a zero gravity vacuum, that does the lazy vacuum for 
pages currently available in the buffer cache only. And another pg_stat 
column telling the number of tuples vacuumed so that an autovac has a 
chance to avoid IO consuming vacuum runs for relations where 99% of the 
dead tuples have been caught in memory.
