Hi!

Remember that every logswitch causes a checkpoint, so if you're switching
logs very often, you'll have very agressive checkpointing, causing excessive
IO and dbwr activity (also all datafiles' headers are updated during full
checkpoint).

So I doubt that your system will perform well if you're switching logs every
few seconds, but if you want to control this manually, you could set
archive_lag_target to few seconds, causing a log switch after every given
interval...

Tanel.
