Chunk_skipping is not working

Hi all!
I tested the chunk skipping indexes feature in the test database and everything was successful: data for multiple id values is selected very quickly.
In a productive database, data is not selected as quickly when the option is enabled.
I noticed differences in the table "_timescaledb_catalog".chunk_column_stats': on the test database the valid field contains the values false, and on the production database for chunks the valid field contains the values true.
Implementation steps:

1. The timescaledb.enable_chunk_skipping = on setting is enabled.
2. A new table has been created and the option SELECT enable_chunk_skipping('hypertable', 'id') is enabled;.
3. The table were populated and its chunks were compressed.
4. Execution of a query specifying the id values from different chunks:

   SELECT * FROM hypertable WHERE id IN (1, 22222, 333333333);
   

Everything is fine in the test database, but not on the prod.
