UPDATE (and DELETE) queries cannot use partition pruning. Also,
constraint exclusion that's used by UPDATE for pruning doesn't work
for hash partitions. So, unlike SELECT, all partitions are included
in the plan. That makes UPDATE slow, not to mention other
inefficiencies involved in UPDATE planning.

Hash partitioning doesn't apply modulus 3 directly to the value
'14211'. It first computes its hash using the hashing function for
bigint type and then applies the modulus.
