I have been reading the POSTGRESQL System Admin Documentation 8.4
(several times) on WAL and Checkpoints along with their respected
option switches. I can say that I have a general understanding of
what is going on but get confused with the details and use of the
option switches. Does anyone know of any good
presentations/whitepapers that spell out WAL and check-pointing
functionality other than the ADMIN guide?
Thanking you in advance
