I agree. There are things that are much more likely to be unhelpful and irritating -- say, enabling log_connections by default. Such messages would be decididly useless for a large fraction of users and a burden. That's not something you can claim about checkpoints and large-autovac messages, though; not only because they are much less frequent, but also because each line concisely represents a large amount of work. -- Álvaro Herrera 39°49'30"S 73°17'W — https://www.EnterpriseDB.com/ "En las profundidades de nuestro inconsciente hay una obsesiva necesidad de un universo lógico y coherente.
