How can I move pg_xlog to another drive on Windows? In Linux I can use a
symlink, but how do I that on windows?

Hmm ... I'm guessing you'd do it with a shortcut, and then rename the
ShortCut from "Shortcut to pg_xlog" to "pg_xlog".

Haven't done it with PostgreSQL, but it works with a few other programs
I've had to do that with.
