Hi,
Happy to test, really looking forward to seeing this stuff in core.
The explain analyze is below:
Finalize HashAggregate (cost=810142.42..810882.62 rows=59216 width=16)
(actual time=2282.092..2282.202 rows=15 loops=1)
Group Key: (date_trunc('DAY'::text, pageview_start_tstamp))
-> Gather (cost=765878.46..808069.86 rows=414512 width=16) (actual
time=2281.749..2282.060 rows=105 loops=1)
Number of Workers: 6
-> Partial HashAggregate (cost=764878.46..765618.66 rows=59216
width=16) (actual time=2276.879..2277.030 rows=15 loops=7)
Group Key: date_trunc('DAY'::text, pageview_start_tstamp)
-> Parallel Seq Scan on celebrus_fact_agg_1_p2015_12
(cost=0.00..743769.76 rows=4221741 width=12) (actual time=0.066..1631
.650 rows=3618887 loops=7)
One question - how is the upper limit of workers chosen?
