Hello,
Thank you, splitting in “OR” query definitely enables bitmap heap scans,
and thus parallelized read to disk 😃! I though did not understand your
second point, what is parallel append, and how to enable it ?
Just for example:
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS t CASCADE;
CREATE TABLE t (id int not null, payload text) PARTITION BY RANGE (id);
CREATE TABLE p1 PARTITION OF t FOR VALUES FROM (0) TO (1000);
CREATE TABLE p2 PARTITION OF t FOR VALUES FROM (1000) TO (2000);
CREATE TABLE p3 PARTITION OF t FOR VALUES FROM (2000) TO (3000);
CREATE TABLE p4 PARTITION OF t FOR VALUES FROM (3000) TO (4000);
INSERT INTO t SELECT x % 4000, repeat('a',128) || x FROM
generate_series(1,1E5) AS x;
ANALYZE t;
SET enable_parallel_append = on;
SET parallel_setup_cost = 0.00001;
SET parallel_tuple_cost = 0.00001;
SET max_parallel_workers_per_gather = 8;
SET min_parallel_table_scan_size = 0;
SET min_parallel_index_scan_size = 0;
EXPLAIN (COSTS OFF)
SELECT t.id, t.payload FROM t WHERE t.id % 2 = 0
GROUP BY t.id, t.payload;
Group
Group Key: t.id, t.payload
-> Gather Merge
Workers Planned: 6
-> Sort
Sort Key: t.id, t.payload
-> Parallel Append
-> Parallel Seq Scan on p1 t_1
Filter: ((id % 2) = 0)
-> Parallel Seq Scan on p2 t_2
Filter: ((id % 2) = 0)
-> Parallel Seq Scan on p3 t_3
Filter: ((id % 2) = 0)
-> Parallel Seq Scan on p4 t_4
Filter: ((id % 2) = 0)
Here the table is scanned in parallel. It also works with IndexScan.
