Well, yeah, that is the common way to define a function.  The question
was about whether you are constantly re-executing this same SQL
thousands of times over the course of a session.  I think it would take
actually using the function in between such redefinitions to provoke a
plan leak, but if you were doing that it might explain the problem.
