What I'd suggest is resuming the test after making sure you've killed off any old archivers, and seeing if you can make any progress on reproducing the original problem. We definitely need a multiple-archiver interlock, but I think that must be unrelated to your real problem.
Ok, so I've got the old archivers gone (and btw, after a restart I ended up with 3 of them - so I stopped postmaster, and killed them all individually and started postmaster again). Now I can run my same pg_bench, or do you guys have any other suggestions on attempting to reproduce the problem?
