It's hard to tell, because you aren't comparing apples to apples.
Try a prepared statement, like

prepare foo(int) as
SELECT
    COUNT(*)::int4
FROM
    _v1
WHERE
    service_id = $1
;

execute foo(504);

which should produce results similar to the function.  You could
then use "explain analyze execute" to probe further into what's
happening.
