<acronym>WAL</acronym> logs are stored in the directory
<filename>pg_xlog</filename> under the data directory, as a set of
- segment files, normally each 16 MB in size. Each segment is divided into
- pages, normally 8 kB each. The log record headers are described in
+ segment files, normally each 16 MB in size (but the size can be changed
+ by altering the <option>--with-wal-segsize</> configure option when
+ building the server). Each segment is divided into pages, normally
+ 8 kB each (this size can be changed via the <option>--with-wal-blocksize</>
+ configure option). The log record headers are described in
<filename>access/xlog.h</filename>; the record content is dependent
on the type of event that is being logged. Segment files are given
ever-increasing numbers as names, starting at
first (like Motorola and SPARC, unlike Intel and VAX). */
