Trigger that spawns forked process

 I would like to write a trigger or function that spawns a forked
process so that the transaction is considered 'complete' to the client,
but continues to perform more work. I've been looking for examples to
steal^H^H^H^H^H learn from but have only found someone asking pretty
much the same question:

 Has anyone done anything like this?

Cheers,

Chris
