Yeah, data accumulates in the origin side ("master"), so you need to
make sure you have sufficient room in pg_xlog to hold all the data
generated during the network interruption.

Dropping the slot would of course release the disk space, but it would
mean that you'd have to re-create the replica afterwards.  I suppose you
could have pg_xlog large enough to hold as much data as possible for a
mid-sized network interruption, and drop the slot as a last resource if
a connection interrupts for long enough that you risk causing
reliability problems in the origin.

I don't think so.
