I have a test PG 8.2.5 installation that has been left idle with no
connections to it whatsoever for the last 24 hours plus. WALs are
being archived exactly 5 minutes apart, even though archive_timeout

changes?

In the absence of activity, WAL are archived every checkpoint_timeout
seconds. archive_timeout is how long postgres will wait for the
archive_command to return before declaring it failed.
