Assuming these machines are near each other the answer is simple,
install a NIC in each one and give them their own private connection
to each other.
If they're distant from each other, stop using streaming replication
and use log archiving with mass transfer every x minutes or hours.
If they are on virtual machines then there's the problem right there.
