Hi, just wondering if this is normal, DB is operating just fine.

I upped bgwriter_lru_maxpages to 200 and issued a reload. Normally, I'd
see the bgwriter constantly churning as one of my main I/O using
processes, but now I have:

postgres: wal writer process
postgres: checkpointer process

The wal writer seems to have taken over. Does this make sense?

-Matt
