Hm. I tried to reproduce this here, and in a simple test case I get
parallelized plans for both CREATE and REFRESH. Are you sure the
REFRESH is running with the same server parameter settings?

EXPLAIN isn't bright about that, but if you enable auto_explain,
it will log the plan for a REFRESH's query.
