I've been trying to trace down a slowdown in HEAD's regression tests
compared to the v10 branch, and one thing I discovered is that there was
a noticeable across-the-board slowdown in the TAP tests as a result of
commit 6271fceb8; as much as 10% for the "scripts" tests, though less in
other places.  The changes it made in xlog.c cannot explain that; it has
to be down to this:

diff --git a/src/test/perl/PostgresNode.pm b/src/test/perl/PostgresNode.pm
index 93faadc20e..80f68df246 100644
--- a/src/test/perl/PostgresNode.pm
+++ b/src/test/perl/PostgresNode.pm

        print $conf "wal_retrieve_retry_interval = '500ms'\n";
        print $conf "port = $port\n";

Now, that was neither mentioned in the commit message nor justified
by any added test cases or scaffolding, so I'm assuming it was simply a
mistake and should be reverted.  Please confirm.
