That's not necessary. Usually you do this only the first time you set it up, then take advantage of the wal_keep_segments on the master and allow the standby to resync.

A. I need to know why PG master started accepting connections at (1)
and still NOT able to fully commit the transactions. Statements that
are executed after (3) are not seeing this problem.

This behaviour is perfectly fine. Until the master and the standby are in sync, given that you set the standby to be the synchronous one, the master MUST wait until the standby writes on disk the transaction information.

I suggest that first you remove the standby server from the list of synchronous servers by commenting the 'synchronous_standby_names' line and wait until the standby catches up (asynchronous streaming replication). Then uncomment the 'synchronous_standby_names' line on the master and issue a reload. From that moment on you will have synchronous streaming replication in place.

Cheers,
Gabriele

P.S.: I took it for granted that the two servers are in the same LAN.
