Definition PG 8.2 manual

Controls whether the server should start the statistics-collection subprocess. This is on by default, but may be turned off if you know you have no interest in collecting statistics or running autovacuum. This parameter can only be set at server start, because the collection subprocess cannot be started or stopped on-the-fly. (However, the extent to which statistics are actually gathered can be changed while the server is running, so long as the subprocess exists.)
