I managed to reproduce this on a Linux VM. This problem should arise
because in extension I don't have access to ProcArrayStruct. So, my
code is iterating the whole PGPROC's array. I reimplemented the new
horizon calculation function in the core with usage of
ProcArrayStruct. Now it doesn't fall for me. Please, recheck.
