No. I need to send 2 million records. I want to know what is the best possible way to send these records?
HOw should I write the plpgsql procedure to send record ony by one to improve the response time to the users?

If that's the case surely you'd use some SQL to merge the data into one
long string and return it in a single record.
Looping over two million results is going to take a while, not to mention
quite a bit of memory.
