We discuss the best approximation of periodic functions by trigonometric polynomials and the approximation by Fourier partial summation operators, Vallee-Poussin operators, Cesaro operators, Abel operators, and Jackson operators, respectively, on the Sobolev space with a Gaussian measure and obtain the average error estimations. We show that, in the average case setting, the trigonometric polynomial subspaces are the asymptotically optimal subspaces in the L-q space for 1 <= q < infinity, and the Fourier partial summation operators and the Vallee-Poussin operators are the asymptotically optimal linear operators and are as good as optimal nonlinear operators in the L-q space for 1 <= q < infinity.
