Hi folks. I notice that immutable flag does nothing when i invoke
my plpgsql function within one session with same args.
tele=# SELECT version();
version
-------------------------------------------------------------
PostgreSQL 7.3.4 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC 2.96
At first EXPLAIN ANALYZE shown strange runtime :)
[15:41]/0:ant@monstr:~>time psql -c 'EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT calc_total(1466476, 1062363600, 1064955599)' tele
QUERY PLAN
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Result (cost=0.00..0.01 rows=1 width=0) (actual time=0.00..0.00 rows=1 loops=1)
Total runtime: 0.02 msec
^^^^^^^^^
(2 rows)
real 0m19.282s
^^^^^^^^^
At second. calc_total() is immutable function:
tele=# SELECT provolatile from pg_proc where proname = 'calc_total' and pronargs =3;
provolatile
-------------
i
but it seems that it's not cached in one session:
[15:38]/0:ant@monstr:~>psql tele
