Currently says
Number of disk-page buffers allocated in shared memory for WAL data.
The default is 8. The setting need only be large enough to hold the
amount of WAL data generated by one typical transaction, since the
data is written out to disk at every transaction commit. This
parameter can only be set at server start.
However I just loaded up an 8.2.1 and the default is 32m
