I don't think I can use PGPool as the replicator, because then it becomes a new single point of failure that could bring the whole system down. If you're using it for INSERT/UPDATE, then there can only be one PGPool server.
Are you sure? I have been considering this possibility, too, but I didn't find anything in the documentation. The main mechanism of the proxy is taking received updates and playing them one multiple servers with 2PC, and the proxies should not need to keep any state about this, so why couldn't you install multiple proxies?
