No, but it's in mine. As I said upthread, no point in making it more
parallel than memory allows. Different operations need more/less memory
than others, so we must think about that also. We can quickly work out
how big a table is, so we can work out how much memory it will need to
perform sorts for index builds and thus how many parallel builds can
sensibly take place.
