What should this "select count(*) from xx;" be good for, if you don't want to use the result? You can of
course do "perform select ..." because that'd use another PL/pgSQL executor construct that doesn't complain
about getting an unused return value, but I still wonder why you want to waste CPU and IO (bought an oversized
system?).
