Uhm, that's very weird. Updates are not applied from the tlog. Rather the raw doc is forwarded to the replica which both indexes the doc and writes it to the local tlog. So having a 14G tlog on a follower but a small tlog on the leader is definitely strange, especially if it persists over time.
I assume the follower is healthy? And does this very large tlog disappear after a while? I'd expect it to be aged out after a few commits of > 100 docs. All that said, there have been a LOT of improvements since 4.6, so it might be something that's been addressed in the intervening time.
