I find this bit rather odd. Normally the system shouldn't create
multixacts this large. I think we might be missing a trick here somewhere.
I imagine inserting the last few items is slow, isn't it?

This is strange also; if the files are present in master, how come they
weren't copied to the replica? I think we need more info about this
problem.
