I have a Postgres 8.3 system that is configured to run autovacuum. It triggered a vacuum analyze on multiple tables
andsince this started, we are getting large numbers of WAL files generated about every 15 minutes or so. This same
vacuumappears to continuing to run. Other database activity is at its usual levels. Should a vacuum analyze lead to
largeamounts of data being written to WAL files? We are seeing 10x the number WAL files that we would expect.
Any ideas on the best approach to diagnose what is going on?
