- *		Updates of pg_attribute statistics are handled by over-write,
- *		for reasons described above.  pg_statistic rows are added normally.
+ *		Statistics are stored in several places: the pg_class row for the
+ *		relation has stats about the whole relation, the pg_attribute rows
+ *		for each attribute store "dispersion", and there is a pg_statistic
+ *		row for each (non-system) attribute.  (Dispersion probably ought to
+ *		be moved to pg_statistic, but it's not worth doing unless there's
+ *		another reason to have to change pg_attribute.)  The pg_class values
+ *		are updated by VACUUM, not here.
+ *
+ *		We violate no-overwrite semantics here by storing new values for
+ *		the dispersion column directly into the pg_attribute tuple that's
+ *		already on the page.  The reason for this is that if we updated
+ *		these tuples in the usual way, vacuuming pg_attribute itself
+ *		wouldn't work very well --- by the time we got done with a vacuum
+ *		cycle, most of the tuples in pg_attribute would've been obsoleted.
+ *		Updating pg_attribute's own statistics would be especially tricky.
+ *		Of course, this only works for fixed-size never-null columns, but
+ *		dispersion is.
+ *
+ *		pg_statistic rows are just added normally.  This means that
+ *		pg_statistic will probably contain some deleted rows at the
+ *		completion of a vacuum cycle, unless it happens to get vacuumed last.
  *
  *		To keep things simple, we punt for pg_statistic, and don't try
  *		to compute or store rows for pg_statistic itself in pg_statistic.
