I followed another post in the PHP List. Andrew McMillan was talking
about his experiences with udf's in Oracle and PG (--> look for subject:
Re: [PHP] pl/php for windows). He was writing that, by using udf's, the
planner sometimes uses strange and not performant plans. So generally I
understood that using udf's is a good idea - compared with the work I
have to do when I code that e.g in PHP and also compared to the better
resulting performance with udf's. So what is your experience with using
udf's (plpgsql)? Is there something like "use it in this case but not in
that case"?
Your answers are very welcome ...
Cheers
Andy
