So, it looks like everything is good, just the archive command is not getting called enough.

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.
