Such “torn pages” are corruptions from the database point of view. This is not a problem for PostgreSQL alone; every database software needs to deal with this problem. Individual processes generate WAL records, and latency is very crucial for transactions. This is generally referred to as “ partial page writes ” or “ torn pages.”
