Can you provide some sample ddl, data and sql to illustrate your question?

You mention in one place "iteration" and "parallel" but in another you
mention recursion.. Recursion (by definition?) involves pushing state data
forward into each successive iteration.. Therefore you can't run recursion
in parallel.

If you can provide examples maybe we can see which if parallelism is a
possibility..
