Hello,
I have master - slave replication hot standby. Both server are linux
slackware64 current with postgresql 9.4.4.
Today when I logged to check some things on slave server I see on top
memory taken 26%. That was strange for me and I restart server.
Well, I checked after 40 minute and I see again replication process is
little growing. For 10 min about 1.0.

Today our system is little bit average but slave server receive one wal
file every minute. As you can see checkpointer process and recovering is
5.4% and until I write the email,
I check them again and now is 6.0

and continue...
That is the slave server only for mirroring database no any connections
and query ever run on him.
My question is this normal ?
