I am curious about the stored proc languages inside of postgres. When I write a stored proc is it compiled to some internal representation or just interpreted? How does this work with other languages?

Also would it be possible to extract PL-PGSQL into a standalone (albeit crippled) language? Is the interpreter/compiler modular like that?

Thanks.
