Re: ATTACH PARTITION "hangs"

WHy when I attach a partition , it takes hours to complete (hasn't completed yet) when it should be immediate?

ALTER TABLE jobs ATTACH PARTITION jobs_23_04_05_week

FOR VALUES FROM ('2023-04-05') TO ('2023-04-12');

I created a constraint to make the ATTACH command work immediately

ALTER TABLE  jobs_23_04_05_week  

ADD CONSTRAINT jobs_23_04_05_week_constraint

 CHECK ( enqueue_time IS NOT NULL AND

  enqueue_time >= '2023-04-05'::timestamp without time zone AND

 enqueue_time < '2023-04-12'::timestamp without time zone ) ; 

     Column           |            Type             | Collation | Nullable |  
----------------------+-----------------------------+-----------+----------+-
 enqueue_time         | timestamp without time zone |           | not null |
