Comment(by dustymugs):

 My wish list for DBWs...

 1. on-demand: workers are forked as needed

 2. generic: workers aren't specific to a particular task but are given
 instructions which are then acted upon.

 3. user-defined: a GUC to specify how many workers per operation. this
 does have a problem with overloading a machine.
