Greetings,

I am new here.  Apologetic question: how can i search the archives of this mailing list? Is there some set of magic words to put in Google? Must I wade through 20 pages of hits? Should I download all the archives and grep? :) 

Main question:  I want to understand very precisely the exact algirithm used in PG to do asynchronous streaming replication. Eg, I want to know how the record is written and flushed to the socket and how that happens in time w.r.t WAL-to-disk and response to client. Will someone please give me a head start as to where to begin my code-spelunking?
