Description
This issue has been migrated from [#14338](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14338).
---
Like #12373, but for https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/493c2fc44abcf3457953cc2f6f23509ff7855253/synapse/config/background_updates.py#L21-L37
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with synapse/config/background_updates.py, especially lines 21-37, and compare the approach described in issue #12373. Trace how SIGHUP configuration reloads are handled; done means the background update rate parameters can be changed and applied after receiving SIGHUP.
