Hi,
Do the below processes look OK for a standby (streaming replication)
server? We recently migrated from 12 to 16. I don't remember seeing
"startup recovering" process for a long time after starting of
standby server on postgresql 12, it has been long time so I could be
wrong. Just want to make sure my standby is in a good shape. I have
run some queries on standby to see if latest data is available and
seems like it is there.

Also seeing log entries about every 5 minutes as shown below. These
were not present when we were running 12.
