I don't think solution is quite this simple. This will cause all table
sync workers to be delayed which means concurrency will suffer and the
initial sync of all tables will take much longer especially if there is
little data. We need a way to either detect if we are launching same
worker that was already launched before, or alternatively if we are
launching crashed worker and only then apply the delay.
