Hi Laurenz The code below takes 3, seconds DO $body$ DECLARE BEGIN EXECUTE 'SELECT pg_sleep(1); SELECT pg_sleep(1); SELECT pg_sleep(1);'; END $body$; Do you or anybody know if there are any plans for a function call that support the calling structure below or something like it and that then could finish in 1 second ? (If you are calling a void function, the return value should not be any problem.) DO $body$ DECLARE command_string_list text[3]; BEGIN command_string_list[0] = 'SELECT pg_sleep(1)'; command_string_list[1] = 'SELECT pg_sleep(1)'; command_string_list[2] = 'SELECT pg_sleep(1)'; EXECUTE_PARALLEL command_string_list; END $body$; The only way to this today as I understand it, is to open 3 new connections back to the database which you can be done in different ways. If we had a parallel functions like the one above it's easier to make parallel sql without using complex scripts, java, python or other system. Thanks. Lars
