I tend to consider it a bug that there's no known way under windows to
use the same trick as under Unix by using '/usr/bin/true' as your
archive command. And this Unix trick itself does feel like a hack.
Also I'd very much like to be able to recommend (even if not change the
official defaults) to setup wal_level to archive, archive_mode=on and
archive_command=pg_archive_bypass, so that the day you have a HA budget
ain't the day you're going to restart the server to enable the fault
tolerance settings…
That particular use case is better handled by making archive_mode
changeable on-the-fly. Now that we have wal_level as a separate GUC, it
shouldn't be too hard.
I like internal commands as a solution in general, but it's still in
search of a problem..
