+ When autosummarization is enabled, each time a page range is filled a
+ request is sent to autovacuum for it to execute a targeted summarization
+ for that range, to be fulfilled at the end of the next worker run on the
+ same database. If the request queue is full, the request is not recorded
+ and a message is sent to the server log:
+<screen>
+LOG: request for BRIN range summarization for index "brin_wi_idx" page 128 was not recorded
+</screen>
+ When this happens, the range will be summarized normally during the next
+ regular vacuum of the table.
