Is that repeatable? If yes, it would be a bug. If not, it could be a race condition: a parallel query finished rather fast, but one of the parallel workers took long to start up, so when it tries to attach to the dynamic shared memory segment used to exchange data between the parallel processes, it realizes that everybody else has already left and destroyed the memory segment. In the latter case, you can ignore the error. Yours, Laurenz Albe -- Cybertec | https://www.cybertec-postgresql.com
