That's exactly this kind of data that would allow to conclude where
the data comes from, and you are not showing it, so it is not possible
to make a clear conclusion. Are known the file paths, the offset
position in the file where a chunk of data is taken, and the chunk
size. If you see for example a bunch of 8kB blocks being copied, this
means that some extra load ran on the master before it was stopped,
and before running the rewind. Are you sure that you don't have large
log files for example?

I would be curious to know what is the version of Postgres 9.5 you are
using as well.
