I don't understand why the server starts that process if I'm not using replication of any kind.
The server starts it with the default configuration of version 13.I think that it consumes resources that I do not need because, as I have commented, I will not use replication of any kind.
It starts the process because at any time someone can execute a “create subscription” command. If no one does so the amount of time spent confirming the subscriptions table is empty is trivial.
So, yes, it consumes resources. A minimal amount, likely not enough to spend time figuring out how to avoid and risking a change to the basic operational mode of the subsystem.
