No. It will not be called
Or
No. Postgresql does not short-circuit boolean evaluations
?

Hi,

Does Postgresql perform short-circuit boolean evaluation both in SQL
and PL/pgSQL functions?  As an example, suppose I have a function called
"do_stuff" which is computationally intensive.  In the example below,
will it be called for rows for which the first predicate (foobar.id = $1)
is false?

SELECT count(*) FROM foobar WHERE foobar.id = $1 AND do_stuff (foobar.name);

Thanks!
Jon
