The basic problem here seems to be that WAL Sender is not able to send
a keepalive or any other message for the configured
wal_receiver_timeout. I am not sure how that can happen but can you
once try by switching autovacuum = off? I wanted to ensure that
WALSender is not blocked due to the background process autovacuum.
