pgpool(annouced at general/announce list) is a synchronous single
master replication solution and it runs UPDATE/INSERT about 2/3 speed
of a normal PostgreSQL. So if you are lucky enough to aquire good
hardware which can run normal PostgreSQL with 15000 INSERTs, you could
obtain that speed with replication.

PGCluster (http://www.csra.co.jp/~mitani/jpug/pgcluster/en/index.html) is a
synchronous multimaster replication solution.
