Hi,

I would probably use "/hot_standby_feedback/" rather than change the
delay parameters, unless you want to have the read replica (Standby)
actually to operate some time behind the primary, for some reason (like
having a copy of the data an hour old to fix mistakes on the primary).

https://postgresqlco.nf/doc/en/param/hot_standby_feedback/

The /hot_standby_feedback /parameter sends feedback to the primary, so
the transaction is less likely to be cancelled.  The only draw back is
that is can cause some bloat on the primary database.

Regards,

Matt
