I have a master slave setup that is on the most part working smoothly. The logs are getting
shipped to the slave, the slave is requesting them and then applying them.

The problem is that the logs are building up in the pg_xlog dir and not overwriting. I do have
archive_mode on in postgresql.conf so when the slave needs to come online as the new
primary it start shipping its logs. Is this setting effecting recovery mode too?

Thanks in advance
Simon
