Hi,

I noticed in 8.3 there are chances where we can avoid WAL logging. For
example, 8.3's pgbench was modified to use TRUNCATE right before
COPY. Is there any documentation which describes that kind of
techniques? If there's none, I would volunteer the work to create such
a documentation since I think this is valuable information for DBAs
who wish to migrate to 8.3.
