Now (10.x onwards) you can find the time target blocked.

index=_internal bucketreplicator host=< all idx hosts> source=*splunkd.log*  total_blocked_time_seconds | timechart max(total_blocked_time_seconds) by peer

index=_internal bucketreplicator host=< all idx hosts> source=*splunkd.log*  total_blocked_time_seconds | timechart max(total_blocked_time_seconds) by bid
