This parameter is useful in configurations where a node in recovery
3059+
needs to control the amount of time to wait for new WAL data to be
3060+
available. For example, in archive recovery, it is possible to
3061+
make the recovery more responsive in the detection of a new WAL
3062+
log file by reducing the value of this parameter. On a system with
3063+
low WAL activity, increasing it reduces the amount of requests necessary
3064+
to access WAL archives, something useful for example in cloud
3065+
environments where the amount of times an infrastructure is accessed
3066+
is taken into account.
