I currently see the common code for parallel inserts i.e. insert into
selects, copy, ctas/create mat view/refresh mat view is the code in -
heapam.c, xact.c and xact.h. I can make a separate patch if required
for these changes alone. Thoughts?
IIRC parallel inserts in insert into select and copy don't use the
design idea of pushing the dest receiver down to Gather. Whereas
ctas/create mat view, refresh mat view, copy to can use the idea of
pushing the dest receiver to Gather and can easily extend on the
patches I made here.
Is there anything else do you feel that we can have in common?
