Yes, but that's because the hundreds of times slower sequential scan hides the insert time. Furthermore, as an aside,
Worker3 does much of the work in the parallel sequential scan + parallel insert case, while the load is well balanced
inthe parallel bitmap scan + parallel insert case.
Oracle and SQL Server executes parallel DML by holding an exclusive lock on the target table. They might use some
specialpath for parallel DML to mitigate contention.
