Hi,
When I read the document for wal_log_hints, I see:
<para>
If data checksums are enabled, hint bit updates are always WAL-logged
and this setting is ignored. You can use this setting to test how much
extra WAL-logging would occur if your database had data checksums
enabled.
</para>
I think if it should be changed to ".. if your database had data
checksums *disabled*".
Per my check, wal_log_hints is not used except the case:
#define XLogHintBitIsNeeded() (DataChecksumsEnabled() || wal_log_hints)
So if data checksums is enabled, nothing can be tested when turning
wal_log_hints on/off.

Best Regards
Andy Fan
