Description

The issue applies both to namespace loading and metastore loading during startup.
This causes cold start to take over 10s in some cases since it requires multiple roundtrips to S3.

Research direction

Start by tracing startup through namespace loading and metastore loading, focusing on the synchronous S3 calls and their multiple roundtrips. The issue mentions no files or tests, so locate the relevant startup entry points first. Done means bottomless replication no longer requires synchronous S3 calls that make cold starts exceed 10 seconds.
