Yes, the consumer reads the accesslog and processes the entries therein as changes they represent (this is the delta part of delta-syncrepl). Its own accesslog overlay will then create new entries based on what has been done (so they will be different from the server it was replicating from). This is how the DB and its accesslog are tied together and what makes it suitable as a deltasync source for someone trying replicate it.
