I am confused, I thought that there were only supposed to be links to

I have a db defined in a tablspace, but in pg_tblspc there is 1.2G of
data corrresponding to it?

Are you on a system that has symlinks? Are you sure that whatever tool
you're using to count the space doesn't traverse symlinks?

IIRC, there is a corner case during replay-from-WAL where we'll create
a plain directory under pg_tblspc to substitute for a symlink (if the
symlink isn't there and we don't have the information to recreate it).
I don't believe it's easy to get into that state though.
