Is it possible to get some reproducible script/test for this problem?

Just by seeing these LOGs, it seems subscriber side workers are
exiting due to some error and publisher-side (WALSender) still
continues due to which I think we are seeing ""A_sub" is active for
PID 1766849". Do you see any different type of error in
subscriber-side logs?
