pg_restore weirdness

I got a very weird restore problem:
1. I use
   pg_dump -Fc urldb > urldb
   on one server(FreeBSD4.3 Pg7.2.0)
2. I use
   pg_restore -l urldb > archive.list
   on another server(FreeBSD4.6 Pg7.2.1)
   then I use
   pg_restore -v -L archive.lst -d urldb urldb
   on this server(Pg7.2.1)
3. I vacuum tables, then run my sql function which was written in plpgsql
   very simple, I got very surprised is that it run much slower on Pg7.2.1
   machine then Pg7.2.0 machine!
4. When I dropped this function and reload it again(still in binary), it
   much much faster then before.

I tested serveral times, same conclusion, I have no other backend running
there.
I cannot explain this, and it doesn't make any sence to me also!
following is my log:
