Hello Dennis, 

Nice you already tried the fresh PG16 meat, after checking the new 
documentation about subtrans we can see that upstream has added that 
directory as shouldn't be saved.

```The contents of the directories pg_dynshmem/, pg_notify/, pg_serial/, 
pg_snapshots/, pg_stat_tmp/, and pg_subtrans/ (but not the directories 
themselves) can be omitted from the backup as they will be initialized on 
postmaster startup.```

Will apply that to the plugin by default before release.
