Thank you for your detailed observation regarding the spike growth of the checkpoint_req counter on the replica following a large insert operation on the master. After reviewing your description and the log, I agree with Kyotaro Horiguchi that the behavior you've outlined, though potentially perceived as annoying, does not constitute a bug in the PostgreSQL. After examining the second patch ("v2-0001-Add-restartpoint-stats.patch"), it appears that adding additional statistics as outlined in the patch is the most suitable approach to address the concerns raised. This solution provides more visibility into the system's behavior without altering its core mechanics. However, it's essential that this additional functionality is accompanied by comprehensive documentation to ensure clear understanding and ease of use by the PostgreSQL community. Please consider expanding the documentation to include detailed explanations of the new statistics and their implications in various scenarios. ------ Regards, Alexander Korotkov
