As far as I'm aware, a server can only connect to and use 1 max_wal_sender at any time, so increasing the number isn't going to speed anything up, only make it possible to add additional servers. You need to determine why there is lag, as normally there should not be any at all. Are both master & standby identical HW? Is the standby running anything other than postgresql ? -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
