Your results will vary based on the food processor you get. I have the 11 cup kitchenaid, which is normally overkill for food for 2 people; but I am a nutcase and just like to cook. It dims the kitchen lights when it's running!
That being said, even something as automatic as the food processor can give different results based on human intervention. I haven't figured out what to do for stuff that sticks and spins around after everything else is done. Generally, I'm grinding up such a volume of food that I just keep adding it in -- ultimately all the stuff spinning around gets stuck against the newly-added food and begins to break down.
As for the puree blade, consider the following:
#1 Use the pulse setting. Quick pulses will send the food airborne inside, instead of throwing it to the sides. The full setting is kind of what you do last.
#2 Add liquid. The liquid will motivate the food to work its way down towards the blade from the sides.
#3 Prepare a larger volume. I can't puree half a cup of something in my main tub. Most of it gets under the blade and cannot be brought back up. With more food, this isn't a problem.
