lazy_cleanup_index has in_parallel argument only for this purpose, but caller still should check in_parallel after
lazy_cleanup_indexcall and do something else with stats for parallel execution.
Would be better always return stats and update statistics in caller? It's possible to update all index stats in
lazy_vacuum_all_indexesfor example? This routine is always parallel leader and has comment /* Do post-vacuum cleanup
andstatistics update for each index */ on for_cleanup=true call.
I think we need note in documentation that parallel leader is not counted in PARALLEL N option, so with PARALLEL 2
optionwe want use 3 processes. Or even change behavior? Default with PARALLEL 1 - only current backend in single
processis running, PARALLEL 2 - leader + one parallel worker, two processes works in parallel.
