Oh... but I'm wrong. As long as our local pgBufferUsage gets update
correctly to incorporate the data from the other workers, the
InstrStopNode(queryDesc->totaltime) will suck in those statistics.
And the only other things getting updated are nTuples (which shouldn't
count anything that the workers did), firsttuple (similarly), and
counter (where the behavior is a bit more arguable, but just counting
the master's wall-clock time is at least defensible). So now I think
you're right: this should be OK.
