Now the question is why there are so many calls to MemoryContextSwitchTo in a single SELECT query command? Can it be minimized?

I agree with Tom -- if profiling indicates that MemoryContextSwitchTo() is the bottleneck, I would be suspicious that your profiling setup is misconfigured. MemoryContextSwitchTo() is essentially a function call, two pointer assignments, and a function return. Try rerunning the test with current sources -- MemoryContextSwitchTo() is now inlined when using GCC, which should just leave the assignments.
