I found that the following query works as the same as partitioned table. SELECT sum(a) FROM (SELECT a FROM ft10 UNION ALL SELECT a FROM ft20 UNION ALL SELECT a FROM ft30 UNION ALL SELECT a FROM ft40 UNION ALL *SELECT a FROM ONLY pf0*) as ft; So, the difference comes from the additional async-uncapable child (faster if contains any). In both cases, Append node runs children asynchronously but slightly differently when all async-capable children are busy. I'll continue working on this from this point aiming to the next commit fest.
