It's known to the postgres developers, and we are working on it. This specific issue (anti-wraparound vacuums being a lot more expensive) should be fixed in the upcoming 9.6.

Awesome! I already push Postgres and praise its team for the quality focus. Just extra evidence in your favor. :)
Well, there's knowing it's autovacuum-related then there's the specific way it's causing a failure. First part was obvious. The rest took work.
"Postgres doesn't have many weaknesses, but most of them relate to autovacuum."
Sounds like that statement should be on a bug submission or something. They probably need to replace that with something better.
