Thanks for the explanation, let my reaction be a guide to what the

What might be a good way to debug it? Is there a piece of code I can
look at to try and figure out the contribution of COST in either case?

_st_intersects is definitely marked parallel safe, and in fact will
generate a parallel plan if used alone (without the operator though,
it's impossibly slow). It's the && operator that is the issue... and I
just noticed that the PROCEDURE bound to the && operator
(geometry_overlaps) is *not* marked parallel safe: could be the
problem?

Thanks,
