This is a bit of a kludge -- ok, a _lot_ of a kludge -- but you
could probably do this with Slony using the log shipping features
instead. That would solve your "60 locations" issue, I think.
Alternatively, you might be able to do this by sort of summarizing in
a few locations, so that you do have 60 nodes, but not all nodes have
to talk to all other nodes. (I think the flakey network might bite
you here, though.)
