They're not using `wal_level = logical`, which has been the "friendly" way of doing CDC on Postgres since ever, but are going straight to `wal_level = replica` which, afaik, has never really been used to build something atop of except Postgres' own replication.
This is very interesting. I'd never have guessed that it'd make such a difference. I also bet this is the sort of thing that would have never end up being implemented without access to coding agents. Having to figure out these protocol-level details is no longer the huge time sink it was
