Can I force archiving of the WAL files using CHECKPOINT statement? My checkpoing_segments is set to 32, but still archive_command is beeing called up only every 45 minutes or so. Is there a way to speed this up a bit? (I'd love to have it around 10 minutes, so I can have almost-live
backed-up server).

No, but it is on the TODO list.


So, the only thing I could to is to reduce checkpoint_segments?

No, that doesn't help because a partially-filled WAL file with little
database activity could be stay unarchived for a long time.

You can however copy the active WAL file at any time, and as many times as you want. And there's recently been a function added that will tell you what that exact file is (I think it's only in HEAD, but I could be wrong).
