FWIW, I doubt that that particular fix is related, because in a replica
server there are no processes performing WAL inserts.

A stack trace of the startup process would definitely be a good thing to
grab if/when you see this again.

And, of course, there is always the standard advice that you ought to
be running current release --- 9.4.4 not 9.4.1.  I do not recognize this
as something we've fixed recently, but that doesn't mean it isn't.
