anyone knows why there are so many files in the directory pg_xlog/archive_status/ in replication server?
# pg_xlog/archive_status/ | wc -l
75217It's not occurs on primary or standalone servers, just on replication.What version? Are you logging checkpoints, and if so what do they say?

I wish the checkpoint logging code would tell you how many transaction log file it intentionally retained as well. I've not seen it "accidentally" retain files, but seeing the number logged would help simplify troubleshooting.
Does each file in pg_xlog/archive_status/ have a corresponding file one directory up?
Cheers,
Jeff
