Well, if such a thing needed to be done, like processing a lot of rows to
yield a small result set, it certainly should be done inside the server,
but as another poster said, being really careful about memory usage.
But, that was not my original idea ; I find that even for small functions
plsql is a bit ugly compared to the usual suspects like Python and others
; unfortunately I think there is overhead in converting the native
postgres datatype to their other language counterparts, which is why I did
not try them (yet).
