Reading code it looks like a bug in choose_next_subplan_for_worker(): The following needs to be changed for this patch: /* Advance to next plan. */ pstate->pa_next_plan++; I'll think a bit harder about the best way to fix and submit a patch for it later. -- David Rowley http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services
