2006/6/19, Clodoaldo Pinto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Since I have a database with a frequent and huge update batch, the WAL
segment file number is about 130. I suspect these files management
during the update is hurting performance. Is it likely? I'm using
Fedora Core 3 and checkpoint_segments is set to 64.
To overcome this I'm considering to make the WAL segment files bigger.
The segment file default size is 16 MB. How to build from the source
rpm to have bigger files, say 128 MB?
I found it in src/include/pg_config_manual.h:
/*
* XLOG_SEG_SIZE is the size of a single WAL file. This must be a power of
2
* and larger than BLCKSZ (preferably, a great deal larger than BLCKSZ).
*
* Changing XLOG_SEG_SIZE requires an initdb.
*/
#define XLOG_SEG_SIZE (16*1024*1024)
