Thread: BUG #8728: Toast table much larger on replica

(apologies for lack of proper threading, but I never got an e-mail from my
form submission--checked spam folder and everything)

I took another look at the cluster, and the extra extents in question all
look like this in hexdump:

We're actually investigating a separate WAL-E issue that may have led to
missing files (possibly including visibility maps) when originally setting
up the base backup. I don't think that directly caused these extra files,
but I'm bringing it up since it may be relevant here.

My apologies, but we had an issue with the form submission page for a
bit.  If anyone else submitted a bug and it did not show up- please
re-submit.

  Thanks,

Thanks, Stephen. To clarify, the bug itself did show up in the list
archives:
http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/E1W0JPC-00012b-I1@wrigleys.postgresql.org

I just never got an e-mail regarding the bug that I could follow up on.
