It really is set at 3s on all servers (master and standbies) earlier in the
"deployment" process at the same time "listen_addresses", "hot_standby",
and others are set. This doesn't seem to happen every time I run tests. I
increased logging to DEBUG1. This is what I got when the problem occurred
again. Note that the empty line is there in the log file.
