Thank you for testing!

Hmm, I think the parallel vacuum would help for heavy workloads like a
big table with multiple indexes. In your test result, all executions
are completed within 1 sec, which seems to be one use case that the
parallel vacuum wouldn't help. I suspect that the table is small,
right? Anyway I'll also do performance tests.
