Maybe you did not understand
Production server cannot stop while I upgrade my subscriber server, so it
will be creating WAL continuously.

Subscriber server has trigger functions for auditing on all tables,
something like ...
insert into auditable(schemaname, tablename, primarykey, operation,
olddata, newdata) values(tg_table_schema, tg_table_name, getpk(new), tg_op,
row_to_json(old), row_to_json(new))

Then, all changes between pg_upgrade and now will not be inserted into
auditable.
