Thanks for the comments, but the current description seems enough to me.

I checked the existing codes, it seems both style are being used.
Maybe we can post a separate patch to replace them later.

Thanks, it seems a timing problem, if the leader catch the change first and stop
the parallel workers, the message will only appear once. But I agree we'd
better make the message clear. I changed the message in parallel apply worker.
While on it, I also adjusted some other message to include "parallel apply
worker" if they are in parallel apply worker.
