Hi

Thanks, Tom.

After you made your recommendation, the result returned much quicker at 2.62 seconds, but v15 is still faster at 1.82 seconds. No modification was made to the function.  

and you look at the log file and separate query plans from there.

proposed changes just force storing query plans to the log file.

From plans we can see what is different

Regards

Pavel

Your next step should be to compare the plans for the function's
query.  The auto_explain or pg_stat_statements extensions could
be used to check that in-situ, if manually EXPLAINing that query
doesn't yield insight.
