Sure, done that a few times.
Extra WAL data is written for these actions, listed in order of
increasing size
* commit records contain a variable length list of
relcacheinvalidations, mostly applies only to DDL
* one extra WAL record in most VACUUMs, fairly small, optimised away in
some cases
* a transaction issues more than 64 subtransactions it will issue a
record approx 256 bytes plus header
* one extra WAL record every checkpoint, containing a full current
snapshot's worth of running xids 100-400 bytes typically, could go up
from there to 4000 bytes in very extreme write workloads that also have
many, many subtransactions
