Hello I though, so simple SQL functions should be inlined everywhere. When I tested sample for recent discussion, I found so immutable flag breaks inlining.
Is it bug? postgres=# create or replace function foo(a int) returns int as $$ select $1+1$$ language sql STRICT IMMUTABLE; CREATE FUNCTION Time: 2,723 ms postgres=# SELECT * FROM pg_stat_user_functions ; funcid | schemaname | funcname | calls | total_time | self_time --------+------------+----------+-------+------------+----------- 16450 | public | foo | 3 | 0 | 0 (1 row) postgres=# SELECT foo(10); foo ----- 11 (1 row) funcid | schemaname | funcname | calls | total_time | self_time --------+------------+----------+-------+------------+----------- 16450 | public | foo | 4 | 0 | 0 (1 row) postgres=# create or replace function foo(a int) returns int as $$ select $1+1$$ language sql STRICT; CREATE FUNCTION Time: 3,716 ms postgres=# SELECT foo(11); foo ----- 12 (1 row) Time: 1,611 ms postgres=# SELECT * FROM pg_stat_user_functions ; funcid | schemaname | funcname | calls | total_time | self_time --------+------------+----------+-------+------------+----------- 16450 | public | foo | 4 | 0 | 0 (1 row) regards Pavel Stehule -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
