[ scratches head... ] It should certainly not have taken very long to
replay 10 WAL segments worth of data.  I surmise that the problems
you were having before the shutdown were worse than you thought, ie
checkpoints were failing to complete, probably due to a persistent
I/O error, so that there was a whole lot more than normal to replay
after the last successful checkpoint.  Is there any evidence of such
distress in the postmaster log?
