I'd say set them both to 0.
If you have hot_standby_feedback=on, the primary will not remove any rows still
needed on the standby, so there should never be a need to delay WAL application.
The drawback is that you may get considerable bloat on the primary if many
DELETE/UPDATE operation are going on and queries on the standby take a long time.
