Great. We are read heavy. I assume the journals do not replicate reads. Is that correct?

It's not sensitive at all -- at the worse case, your journals will
expand during the burst period and shrink again during the idle
period.

It's designed to be asynchronous replication w/ consistency so it
doesn't matter to rbd-mirror if it's behind. In fact, you can even
configure it to always be X hours behind if you want to have a window
for avoiding accidents from propagating to the DR site.
