but does it hurt us if we will wait?
it seems that we call this from the recovery worker that can sleep
and potentially having a sched worker running in parallel won't help

why use another verbs?

can't it be like it's done in guc submit: pause/unpause ?

this doesn't have it's counterpart in shutdown

at least add some explanation why it's explicitly needed here
