Big pg_xlog folder

[cobenash]

After I use this images and built the container with docker compose, I found out that there are big folder called pg_xlog.

How can I delete that and keep the folder size small forever ?

Did you enable S3 backup? If yes and for some reason, postgres can't send those backups to S3, the pg_xlog will filled up with pending files.

If you don't use S3 backup, you can disable it so that postgres won't try to store those in pg_xlog.

If you use S3, you need to check if there is anything wrong with your setup (key, secret, bucket) to prevent those files being sent out.
