So to say, give me the list of friends (not only their ID's, but all the needed columns!) of given individual, which are in a given group. That seems ok without plproxy, but with using it, I can't imagine how can I form a nice query, or a function (or a set of plpgsql + plproxy functions) to do the job.

You need to do it in two steps - first run a query on the partition the
user is in to get list of friends ids, then run a second RUN ON ALL
query with
WHERE f.friend.id in (list of ids from f1) AND f.group_id = $2

to gather all friend info in parallel

I was thinking about that. But I don't understand, how can I pass the list of id's. Should I turn the output of a select into an array? How then? What if the array gets hundreds of items long?
