pgBackRest is specifically designed to handle very large clusters and
high WAL rates.  Backup, restore, and archiving can be run in parallel
to speed operations.  The new version 2 has been optimized to make
archive-push even faster than version 1 and we will be releasing an
optimized archive-get soon.

You would be best off achieving your 10-minute windows with daily
incremental backups and then recovery with PITR to the required time.
PITR allows you to specify any time for recovery.
