Sorry for the delay in replying.
The use-case that I have is the following. I'm writing a job-control
tracking sub-system that will store when jobs are started, finished,
failed, etc. I would like to have the ability to have a process that
is requesting to start, to actually wait a specified period time
before starting. It could wait for another job to finish. I'm
writing this in plpgsql since I'm storing status in the db.
I would write a userspace daemon that ran outside of PostgreSQL to call
your procedures as you need them to run.
Sincerely,
Joshua D. Drake
