See
http://www.postgresql.org/devel-corner/docs/postgres/wal.htm
particularly the part about configuration parameters.

> DEBUG:  XLogWrite: new log file created - try to increase WAL_FILES

I don't much like the wording of this message.  Seems like
  DEBUG:  XLogWrite: new log file created - consider increasing WAL_FILES
would convey the idea more accurately.  Comments, better ideas?
