Robert Haas: Parallel Sequential Scan is Committed!

It works!

postgres=# set max_parallel_degree = 0;
SET
postgres=# explain analyse select * from foo where val = .4678;
  QUERY PLAN
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Seq Scan on foo  (cost=0.00..17402.00 rows=1 width=12) (actual time=200.679..200.679 rows=0 loops=1)
  Filter: (val = '0.4678'::double precision)
  Rows Removed by Filter: 1000000

 Execution time: 200.700 ms
