Werner, where did you get this information? In that case recovery
will not finish. :-)

I still do not understand. Apparently it is based on assumption
of extension of high_seq which must not happen.

This must not happen. I did not mean this in code and cannot see
how it can happen. high_seq is set once while single recovery cycle.
Something is buggy.
