I have a background worker running SQL functions, and I believe I have noticed that when I do things like change function definitions, or even add tables, the background worker does not pick up the schema changes until I restart the worker.

Is this expected behavior?  If I use background workers in this way, can I send a signal to it to reload things like function defs, or do I need to restart the workers?

Thanks!
Jeremy
