If there is a delay replaying WAL, the cause is probably a replication conflict. Set "hot_standby = off" on the standby to avoid the problem totally. If you want queries on the standby, set "max_standby_streaming_delay" to 0 to keep replication from falling behind. Yours, Laurenz Albe -- Cybertec | https://www.cybertec-postgresql.com
