Past discussion here suggests that the backends are strictly single threaded. While you might be able to use multiple threads - I don't know - I expect you'd need to protect all SPI access by a lock that serialized everything anyway.

Doing it externally with a script / program that uses multiple connections might just be the way. Unfortunately that means that you don't get a single consistent snapshot - each connection will have its own, potentially different, view of the database state.

A possible use for read only transactions being able to share a snapshot came up in discussion a few weeks ago. I guess this is another one.

I fill tables with observation data, so the tables don't change except the
one for current day. So I don't need to care about different states
of database.
From what has been posted I think that C function can do the work for me.
But I would still appreciate some peace of code from which I can figure
out how this can be done, because I'm new to database programing.

Thank you
