@startDocuBlock WalLogfileSize @brief the size of each WAL logfile --wal.logfile-size

Specifies the filesize (in bytes) for each write-ahead logfile. The logfile size should be chosen so that each logfile can store a considerable amount of documents. The bigger the logfile size is chosen, the longer it will take to fill up a single logfile, which also influences the delay until the data in a logfile will be garbage-collected and written to collection journals and datafiles. It also affects how long logfile recovery will take at server start. @endDocuBlock
