I think create_parallel_paths shouldn't actually run the loop if the reloption is specified; it should just adopt the specified value (or max_parallel_degree, whichever is less). Right now, you have it doing the work to compute the default value but then overriding it. Also, I think parallel_degree should be down in the section that says /* information about a base rel (not set for join rels!) */ and I think it should be called something like rel_parallel_degree, to make it more clear that it's a value set on the relation level. Let's leave out the parallel_threshold stuff for now. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
