Hi,
The new TAP test 049_wait_for_lsn.pl introduced by this commit, because
it takes a long time - about 65 seconds on my laptop. That's about 25%
of the whole src/test/recovery, more than any other test.
And most of the time there's nothing happening - these are the two log
messages showing the 60-second wait:
2025-11-13 21:12:39.949 CET checkpointer[562597] LOG: checkpoint
complete: wrote 9 buffers (7.0%), wrote 3 SLRU buffers; 0 WAL file(s)
added, 0 removed, 2 recycled; write=0.906 s, sync=0.001 s, total=0.907
s; sync files=0, longest=0.000 s, average=0.000 s; distance=32768 kB,
estimate=32768 kB; lsn=0/040000B8, redo lsn=0/04000060
2025-11-13 21:13:38.994 CET client backend[562727] 049_wait_for_lsn.pl
ERROR: recovery is not in progress
So there's a checkpoint, 60 seconds of nothing, and then a failure. I
haven't looked into why it waits for 1 minute exactly, but adding 60
seconds to check-world is somewhat annoying.
While at it, I noticed a couple comments refer to WaitForLSNReplay, but
but I think that got renamed simply to WaitForLSN.
