I agree. This has to be fixed. 

I think it will be possible to use the checkpoints received from the master to 
discard old log files on the slave. The checkpoint contains a low water mark 
pointing to the oldest log record that needs to be kept. Log older than the LWM 
should be discardable on the slave as well. Need some more investigation, 
though...

> Number of log files (and log dir size) on the slave increases continuously

> I did a simple test inserting tuples in a table during replication:
> The attached file 'master_slave-db_size-6.jpg' shows that 
> the size of the log directory (and number of files in the log directory)
> increases continuously during replication, while on master the size 
> (and number of files) never exceeds ~12Mb (12 files?) in this scenario.
> The seg0 directory on the slave stays at the same size as the master 
> seg0 directory.
