The Idea looks good to me.
Since we are already modifying heap_prepare_insert, I am thinking that we can as well enable queries like "insert into .. select from .." with minor modification?
Thanks for the review.
I am finding it not so easy in supporting write operations like INSERT,
DELETE and UPDATE commands to use parallelism benefits for the
queries that are underneath.
Currently the parallelism is enabled only for the tables that don't have
any triggers and indexes with expressions. This limitation can be
removed after a though testing.
To support the same, I removed all the errors from heap functions
and functions to get a new transaction and updating the command id
to the current snapshot (Required for the cases where a single command
validates the input).
Attached a WIP patch for the support for DML write operations.
There is no functional change in base utility write support patch.
