I'm not sure specifically what you're referring to.

A given pl/java function can be multi-threaded, but only one of those 
threads may execute a query at a time.  To get concurrency you need a 
separate connection and function execution.  That's not a separate 
connection to jdbc:default:connection, but another real connection that 
starts up another backend.
