One perfectly good reason for this scenario is portability between postgres and any database implementing the standard (e.g. Oracle).

Not to minimize your work, as I think it is great, but this particular use-case I consider to be overkill for pl/java. It is probably easier to use pl/pgsql if all you want to do is calculations.
We had suggested an online chat to discuss this, when would you be available for that? What timezone are you in. Laszlo is in hungary, and I am in canada, so we are likely spread allover the the map .

B.T.W. I don't really agree on "probably". There are numerous cases when you will be happy just communicating with the database, communicate with another remote resource (message queue typically), or not communicate at all (calculations, etc.).
