Sounds good.

Not sure when or why I would want an rrqueue_size larger than
copy_every, and less sounds very strange. Can we get away with it being
the same thing in all cases?

Do you have some basic performance numbers? It would be good to
understand the overhead of the parallelism on a large file with 1, 2 and
4 threads. Would be good to see if synchronous_commit = off helped speed
things up as well.

Presumably -V and -T still work when we go parallel, but just issue one
query?
