Description:

This wait can occur infrequently after a bottleneck was encountered by the main parallel read thread on an Availability group replica (i.e. after a PARALLEL_REDO_FLOW_CONTROL wait occurred.) This wait is part of normal parallel redo operations.

Added in SQL Server version:

2016

Removed in SQL Server version:

N/A

Extended Events wait_type value:

The map_key value in sys.dm_xe_map_values is 1134 in 2016 RTM. After 2016 RTM, you must check the DMV to get the latest value as some map_key values have changed in later builds.

Other information:

This wait type is one that I usually filter out as a benign wait when doing wait statistics analysis as it is documented as not being indicative of a performance issue.
