If that's the case, how do you expect the standby to keep pace with
the primary after initial sync up ? Frankly, I myself have every doubt
that on a relatively high load setup, the standby will not be able
keep pace with the primary for two reasons:
- Lack of read ahead of data blocks (Suzuki-san's work may help this)
- Single threaded recovery
But then these are general problems which may impact any log-based replication.
