Thanks! Out of curiosity, does the NVME have a big effect on replication throughput? I've been wondering how much trouble I've had with other solutions is due to parsing WAL and how much is just slow cloud disk

Very interesting question. Depends on the use-case, have seen quite a few workloads where logical replication gets throttled on I/O (reorder buffer) where NVMe based disk access should help a lot. This happens specifically when there are larger or interleaved transactions. We plan to test this at production scale soon. Stay tuned for more learnings!
