Try using subtransactions ( http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/sql-savepoint.html ). I suggest releasing or rolling back the savepoints that you no longer need because triggers can be executed many times. 2. You could have a separate connection that does the processing you need, and use LISTEN/NOTIFY to alert the other connection that new data is available to process.
