I meant a max_worker_processes setting, which of course is different. Nevertheless, I find it surprising that max_parallel_degree = 1 does not prevent parallel operations, and that max_parallel_degree is defined in terms of the availability of worker processes (in the strict sense of worker processes that are launched by LaunchParallelWorkers(), and not a broader and more practical definition). -- Peter Geoghegan -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
