Hi,
up to parallel executions, when we had node in explain analyze showing
"loops=x" with x more than 1, it meant that the "actual time" had to be
multiplied by loops to get real time spent in a node.
For example, check step 13 in https://explain.depesz.com/s/gNBd
It shows time of 3ms, but loops of 1873, so the actual time is ~ 5600ms.
But with parallel execution it seems to be no longer the case.
For example:
https://explain.depesz.com/s/LTMp
or
https://explain.depesz.com/s/QHRi
It looks that the actual time is really actual time, and loops is
"worker nodes + 1".
Is that really the case? Should I, for explain.depesz.com, when dealing
with partial* and parallel* nodes, use "loops=1" for calculation of
exclusive/inclusive time? always? some other nodes?
or am I missing something in here?
Best regards,
depesz
