Will autovacuum block DROP or TRUNCATE?
When the autovacuum process is vacuuming a large table, will queries like DROP and TRUNCATE be blocked until vacuuming completed?
In the documentation,it says
Also, the standard form of VACUUM can run in parallel with production database operations. (Commands such as SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE will continue to function normally, though you will not be able to modify the definition of a table with commands such as ALTER TABLE while it is being vacuumed.)
But I wonder if DROP or TRUNCATE is included.
