It's winter here in Australia at the moment, but I have definitely heard the relay operate in my Yaris when using the air conditioning.

I remember back in the 1970s and 1980s it used to be an after market add-on for many cars to have a manifold vacuum sensor that would cut power to the compressor clutch under low vacuum. The idea was to improve acceleration when needed. The compressors weren't as efficient then, and would take noticeable power to operate.
