Hi,

I found $SUBJECT while trying to test parallel queries. Is this a bug?


In not parallel mode, EXPLAIN ANALYZE reports the information about
Sort Method as follows.

=# EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT * FROM pgbench_accounts ORDER BY bid;
                                                            QUERY PLAN
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Sort  (cost=180739.34..183239.34 rows=1000000 width=97) (actual
time=1501.342..1836.057 rows=1000000 loops=1)
   Sort Key: bid
   Sort Method: external sort  Disk: 104600kB
   ->  Seq Scan on pgbench_accounts  (cost=0.00..26394.00 rows=1000000
width=97) (actual time=0.013..179.315 rows=1000000 loops=1)


However, in parallel mode, it's not reported, as follows.

=# SET force_parallel_mode TO on;
=# EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT * FROM pgbench_accounts ORDER BY bid;
                                                               QUERY
PLAN
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Gather  (cost=181739.34..284239.34 rows=1000000 width=97) (actual
time=1507.138..2394.028 rows=1000000 loops=1)
   Workers Planned: 1
   Workers Launched: 1
   Single Copy: true
   ->  Sort  (cost=180739.34..183239.34 rows=1000000 width=97) (actual
time=1503.112..1901.117 rows=1000000 loops=1)
         Sort Key: bid
         ->  Seq Scan on pgbench_accounts  (cost=0.00..26394.00
rows=1000000 width=97) (actual time=0.021..181.079 rows=1000000
loops=1)
