Bg_writer and checkpointer

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have read multiple online blogs, watched videos and still not clarified about 1. Actual difference between bg_writer and checkpointer. When I am querying update set, If bgwriter flushes dirty buffer to base every 200ms(bgwriter_delay), why would I need checkpointer to invoke bgwriter? 
Same way, what happens for insert query?

1. How the flow works?

Dml-->wal_buffer-->also copied to shared_buffer--> commit-->flushed to pg_wal using wal writer -->checkpointer-->fsync to datapath-->bgwriter flushed to base.


Correct me the flowchart
