When the patch will be committed subsequent PostgreSQL version will be able to benefit from protocol copmression. Replication traffic also will be compressed. If you wish, you can join efforts as the reviewer of that patch. As for now, you can use compressed archive recovery - many solutions like WAL-G, pgBackRest, pg_probackup support compressing WALs with decent compression algorithms. They also support parallel upload\download of WAL segments, while replication is TCP-based (serial). Keep in mind that archiving sends only at minimum one segment (16Mb by default) at a time. Also, you will not be able to use features like synchronous commit. Thanks! Best regards, Andrey Borodin.
