7) src/test/README is not describing recovery/
8) This description in src/test/recovery/README is not exact, it
mentions a set of routines that are now part of PostgresNode.pm:
+This directory contains a test suite for recovery and replication,
+testing mainly the interactions of recovery.conf with cluster
+instances by providing a simple set of routines that can be used
+to define a custom cluster for a test, including backup, archiving,
+and streaming configuration.
I would suggest removing the last 4 lines and simplify the paragraph.
9) I have no logical explanation to explain why I am seeing all those
things now.
v2 is attached.
