Something is causing our WAL to grow 160GB/hour *faster* than archiving. (Archiving appears to be working normally.)
Thisstarted in the past couple of days. 

I am having some trouble finding the cause of this. I am looking at pg_stat_statements, # calls, time, shared blocks
written.I am also looking at recent client app deployments. 

My next step might be to use something like pg_waldump to see what's in this WAL.

Any suggestions?
