The following documentation comment has been logged on the website: Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/static/wal-configuration.html Description:
In this section: "At checkpoint time, all dirty data pages are flushed to disk and a special checkpoint record is written to the log file. (The change records were previously flushed to the WAL files.)" I am confused by what the part in parenthesis means by "previously". This may only reflect my ignorance, but I don't know if "previously" means "in previous versions of Postgres" or "before the checkpoint" or something else. Mostly because of this, I don't understand what this statement means.
