I guess I forgot to ask one other question. If the archived wal files are streamed in one by one, would it still be safe to leave the pg_xlog directory intact in the base backup? What would happen with the out of date log files? Would they just stay in place or would the postmaster eventually recycle them after the restore was complete?
And here's one other question..is it safe to ignore the: pgsql_tmp directories when doing the base backup?
