If we fear a large number of entries for such workers then won't it be
better to show the value of these stats only for apply workers. I
think normally the table sync workers perform only copy operation or
maybe a fixed number of xacts, so, one might not be interested in the
transaction stats of these workers. I find merging only specific stats
of two different types of workers confusing.

What do others think about this?
