I don't know why you hate to decrease checkpoint interval so much
despite I proposed to do so only during WAL streaming (and
additionaly allowing it to be optional), we have another and
enough reason to want *to be able* to do so. Averaging disk usage
is not a trivial issue for some users or - I suppose (or hope?) -
not a few users. This is a subject not only of resource limit but
also of operation management.

Yes, It may make catching up in standby mode slower but it seems
to be a choice between the resource and performance.

But since I agree with that this is not a critical issue and with
the opinion that the chekcpoint planning somehow should be
smarter to make better balance between disk usage and
performance, I accept the judgement to drop this.

Thank you.
