Not particularly. I imagine that that case would be helped a lot here (probably more than a simpler case involving only one CREATE INDEX), because each core would be require fewer main memory accesses overall. Maybe you can test it and let us know how it goes. -- 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
