Alvaro-san;

Thank you for a great advice.   I successfully generated all the WAL
records listed below.   By deleteing and VACUUMing a table with
btree_gist based index, I was successful to generate all the GIST WAL
records.

Still have the following WAL record to create:

CLOG_TRUNCATE
XLOG_HEAP_INIT_PAGE
XLOG_BTREE_INSERT_META
XLOG_GIN_CREATE_PTREE
XLOG_GIN_DELETE_PAGE

I have to run good amount of transactions before VACUUM FREEZE to
create CLOG_TRUNCATE.  I'll try.

It's very helpful if anybody knows how to generate XLOG_HEAP_INIT_PAGE
and XLOG_BTREE_INSERT_META.

I'll ask Oleg-san how to generate GIN-related WALs.

Thank you very much;
