I've marked this as rejected in the commitfest, because others are working on a more general solution with parallel workers. That's still work-in-progress, and it's not certain if it's going to make it into 9.6, but if it does it will largely render this obsolete. We can revisit this patch later in the release cycle, if the parallel scan patch hasn't solved the same use case by then.
