Were all other TPC-H queries unaffected? IOW, did they have the same
plan as before with your patch applied? Did you see any regressions?
I assume that this patch has each worker use work_mem for its own
sort, as with hash joins today. One concern with that model when
testing is that you could end up with a bunch of internal sorts for
cases with a GM node, where you get one big external sort for cases
without one. Did you take that into consideration?
