I'd like to measure both the amount of WAL created by a long series of data modifications and the compressed size of the generated WAL files.
I suppose I need to set wal_keep_size high, and pay attention to segment numbers to make sure it was high enough. Then I can look at segments created while the commands were running.
But question: can I simply delete all WAL after a clean shutdown?
