Hi Masahiko, I would still like 0001 in 19, because the cases that remain are the HA ones.
After 239c4d30699 the wait only happens when the standby has a logical slot, and Manu measured that a failover slot synced by the slotsync worker is enough. That is exactly the setup of an HA cluster that keeps logical replication across failover. A network split or a dead app host leaves such a client behind. Promotion then waits until TCP gives up, which may took up to 15 minutes The workarounds need someone to know about this ahead of time, and most failover tools do not terminate backends before promoting. If you still prefer master only, I am fine with it and we need to add that into the doc note for 19. Thanks, Shihao
