Ah, that's an interesting idea. If I understand the original design of it correctly, consider_partitionwise_join being true for a given relation (simple or join) means that its RelOptInfo contains properties to consider it to be joined with another relation (simple or join) using partitionwise join mechanism. Partitionwise join will occur between the pair if the other relation also has relevant properties (hence its consider_partitionwise_join set to true) and properties on the two sides match. That's a loaded meaning and abusing it to mean something else can be challenged, but we can live with that if properly documented. Speaking of which: /* used by partitionwise joins: */ bool consider_partitionwise_join; /* consider partitionwise join * paths? (if partitioned rel) */ Maybe, mention here how it will be abused in back-branches for non-partitioned relations? > Please find attached an updated version of the patch.

I tested your patch (test setup described below) and it has almost the same performance as my previous version: 552ms (vs. 41159ms on HEAD vs. 253ms on PG 10) for the query also mentioned below.
