Is there any way to force analyze to run on a whole table?

Is there any way to force analyze to run on a whole table? In other words for large
tables to avoid sampling? What happens if I run a vacuum analyze?

No. IIRC the sample size is 300 * <largest column statistic setting>,
so at most 300k rows. In the current implementation, ANALYZE will
actually suck the entire sample into memory, so you really really don't
want it trying to analyze millions of rows anyway...
