Chris,
I take it you've checked that the archive_command is actually succeeding
(check the postgresql log file.)
Perhaps try running it manually with an early log file as the PostgreSQL
user account?
When you say you're 500 files behind, how old is the earliest log?
Andy.

I am working on getting my development system working with archive
logging so I can use the pitr features of Postgres. However, I am
finding that the actual archiving is not keeping up with the
generation of the logs. I am now over 500 wal archive files behind
(8+ GB).
What controls how often the archive_command is called?
The actual running of my archive script is taking 1-2 seconds, so I'm
not sure why we are so far behind.
Thanks for any advise,
Chris
