I am not an expert in this matter, but I am not sure if your suggestion is correct. I thought an article is required here, but I could be wrong.

We might not want to add a test for each and every case as that will increase the number and time of tests without a significant advantage. Now that you have pointed this, I can add a test for it unless someone else thinks otherwise. > > 1. > With v45 patch, compute_parallel_delay is never called so function hit > is zero.

I was expecting that this might speed up some cases where parallel vacuum is used by default. -- With Regards, Amit Kapila. EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com
