If archive_timeout is set to non 0, it seems an archive log segment is
created every time checkpoint occurs even there's no database
updation. This leads to creating 16MB log segment files every 5
minutes (default checkpoint period), which will in turn produce 4.6GB
log segments with bogus data. Is this normal?

This is PostgreSQL 8.2 beta1.
