One thought is to use a third, dedicated checkpointing node in addition to the
active and standby nodes.

Introducing new nodes may create overheads in setting up the clusters. we can
always think to reduce the cluster complexities to create setups.

Another option would be to make the standby capable of also performing the
function of checkpointing.

IMO , standby can do checkpointing job.
