It seems, you are trying to achieve the same, what we did. Find my blog entry, which may help you in this scenarios.

1- select a bunch of id (500) in a table (wait4processing 
) containing the list of all records to process
2- remove selected records from wait4processing table in order to eliminate duplicate processing
3- run the procedure (build_contributions_clusters) over the range of selected ids 

--The query I use:
With ids as( delete from wait4processing where id in( select id from wait4processing limit 500)  returning id) 
select build_contributions_clusters(min(id),max(id)) from ids;

The query runs properly if I send it sequentially (wait for the completion of the query before sening it again) but it does'nt work when sending multiple occurrences in parallel.  Seems from the results I got that the first query received by the server runs properly but the following ones try to process the same first 500 records even if deleted - the build_contributions_clusters procedure receive NULL values instead of the following 500 records.

Since I am almost certain it is the expected behavior, I would like to like to understand why, and I would also appreciate to see alternative queries to do the job.

Thanks :-)
