Actually, the sheer size of the database is only of concern during the time it takes to create the replica. Once that is done, the amount of data changes is what really counts. Slony-I is a replication system that replays every single change to a row. That means that a 4GB database with a daily 200% turnover is worse than a 400GB database that changes only 1% of its content per day.
