Streaming Replication Postgresql 16 - Mailing list pgsql-admin

Hi,

Do the below processes look OK for a standby (streaming replication) server? We recently migrated from 12 to 16. I don't remember seeing "startup recovering"  process for a long time after starting of standby server on postgresql 12, it has been long time so I could be wrong.  Just want to make sure my standby is in a good shape. I have run some queries on standby to see if latest data is available and seems like it is there.

Also seeing log entries about every 5 minutes as shown below. These were not present when we were running 12.
