Have you tried cascading replication? What’s the network between the systems? Is a WAN with high latency? Can the replica pull from the WAL file from an archive? For a high latency networks like New York to London; I would terminate the WAL receiver via a script if replication exceeded an acceptable delay to ensure SLA where met. It is faster to pull the WAL files from the local archive which where already replicated to London than streaming replication over a high latency WAN. After It catches up, it will reconnect to streaming replication.
