Does anyone know of any good presentations/whitepapers that spell out WAL and check-pointing functionality other than the ADMIN guide
http://www.westnet.com/~gsmith/content/postgresql/chkp-bgw-83.htm is the main free reference that tries to step outside of the documentation into real-world tuning advice. There are a few of my talks at http://projects.2ndquadrant.it/talks that mention material around this area too; "Inside the PostgreSQL Buffer Cache" and "The Write Stuff" both overlap with checkpoint issues quite a bit. Beyond that, my book is the main extended commentary discussing this area available.
