Good work. One question though, temporary tables. Currently there no
way to get a consistant view of a temporary table from another process.
You probably have to avoid shipping off non-immutable function calls.
Is it possible to deadlock (don't see how, but I may not be looking
hard enough).
Hardest work would be finding what can be safely farmed off.
Nice work though, I hadn't thought of this approach.
Have a nice day,
