Whoops, scratch that previous explain and query.  I accidentally left in a
hard-coded client_id from earlier testing.  The correct query is:

EXPLAIN (VERBOSE,ANALYZE,BUFFERS) SELECT client_id,
CASE WHEN
(SELECT program_type_code FROM reg_spc WHERE target_date() BETWEEN
reg_spc_date AND COALESCE(reg_spc_date_end,target_date()) AND
client_id=tro.client_id LIMIT 1)
ILIKE 'SSP%' THEN

    COALESCE((SELECT staff_id FROM staff_employment_current WHERE
staff_position_code='COORD_PROP' AND agency_project_code='SSP' LIMIT
1),(SELECT staff_id FROM staff_employment_current WHERE
staff_position_code='MGRPROJ' AND agency_project_code='SSP' LIMIT 1))
ELSE

    (SELECT staff_inspector FROM tbl_residence_own ro LEFT JOIN
l_housing_project USING (housing_project_code) WHERE
client_id=tro.client_id AND target_date() BETWEEN residence_date AND
COALESCE(residence_date_end,target_date()) AND NOT ro.is_deleted LIMIT
1)
END
FROM tbl_residence_own tro;

The corrected explain output is attached, and the actual timing was:

 Planning time: 2.741 ms
 Execution time: 2538.277 ms

Sorry for the confusion!  It's been a long day, and filled with many 20+
second waits for queries to finish. :)

Cheers,
Ken
