Actually I've simplied my original sql to the previous version, since it's simple yet reveals the same problem.
My original sql is to get two instersected cluster(as same  concept as group ) and its commonarea:

SELECT
 a.clusterid                                          AS clusterida,
       b.clusterid                                          AS clusteridb,
       St_astext(St_intersection(a.bufferbox, b.bufferbox)) AS commonarea
FROM   (SELECT St_buffer(St_convexhull(St_collect(c.a0)), 2100.000000) AS
               bufferbox,
               d.clusterid                                             AS
               clusterid
        FROM   _mcir_2347694 c,
               _mcir_2347694_clusterid2 d
        WHERE   c.uid = d.uid
        GROUP  BY d.clusterid) a,
       (SELECT St_buffer(St_convexhull(St_collect(c.a0)), 2100.000000) AS
               bufferbox,
               d.clusterid                                             AS
               clusterid
        FROM   _mcir_2347694 c,
               _mcir_2347694_clusterid2 d
        WHERE  c.uid = d.uid
        GROUP  BY d.clusterid) b
WHERE  b.clusterid > a.clusterid
       AND St_intersects(a.bufferbox, b.bufferbox)
ORDER  BY a.clusterid;


The DDL for  _mcir_2347694  and _mcir_2347694_clusterid2 is:
CREATE TABLE _mcir_2347579
(
  a0 geometry,
  uid integer
)
CREATE TABLE _mcir_2347579_clusterid2
(
  uid integer NOT NULL,
  clusterid integer
)
In these two tables, _mcir_2347579_clusterid2.uid = mcir_2347579.uid, just like a forign key.

The same question is how to avoid the following subquery be executed twice:
SELECT St_buffer(St_convexhull(St_collect(c.a0)), 2100.000000) AS
               bufferbox,
               d.clusterid                                             AS
               clusterid
        FROM   _mcir_2347694 c,
               _mcir_2347694_clusterid2 d
        WHERE  c.uid = d.uid
        GROUP  BY d.clusterid

What are you trying to discover about groups and their frequency in
tablea?  Does the numberical value of groupid have any meaning in your
system?
