I am not sure I understand this parameter well enough but it’s with a default value right now of 1000. I have read Robert’s post (http://rhaas.blogspot.com/2018/06/using-forceparallelmode-correctly.html) and could play with those parameters, but unsure whether what you are describing will unlock this 2GB limit.

 


Yeah, may be i was diverting, and possibly cannot use the windows bottleneck.

although the query is diff, the steps were
1) use system default, work_mem = 4MB, parallel_setup_cost = 1000 
-- runs the query in parallel, no disk spill as work_mem suff.for my data

postgres=# explain analyze with cte as (select month_name, day_name, year_actual, max(date) date from dimensions.dates  group by year_actual, month_name, day_name) select max(date),year_actual  from cte group by year_actual;

I was thinking trying to make the query run in parallel, would reduce disk io per worker, and maybe speed up aggregate, especially if ti runs around 1 hours.
ofcourse, this was just trying things, maybe i am trying to override optimizer, but just wanted to understand cost diff and resource by forcing custom plans.

i also tried with enable_sort to off, enable_hashag to off <it only got worse, so not sharing as it would deviate the thread>.

again, ignore, if it does not make sense :)
