I was under impression that data is pushed to slave after a checkpoint is
complete. i.e. 16MB of WAL file has recycled.

Conversely a slave would contain accurate data upto last WAL checkpoint.

I think tunable WAL size should be of some help in such scenario. Otherwise the
system designer has to use async. replication. for granularity upto a
transaction.
