Pushed. Seems like a clear race in the test, so I didn't think it was worth
waiting for testing it on hoverfly.

I think we should lower the log level, but perhaps wait for a few more cycles
in case there are random failures?

I wonder if we should make the connections in poll_query_until to reduce
verbosity - it's pretty annoying how much that can bloat the log. Perhaps also
introduce some backoff? It's really annoying to have to trawl through all
those logs when there's a problem.

Greetings,

Andres Freund
