Thats not what any of the volatility information (like STABLE, IMMUTABLE, VOLATILE) does. See http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/interactive/xfunc-volatility.html It *does* change how often a function is executed though. I.e. SELECT g.i, some_stable_func(1) FROM generate_series(1, 1000) g(i) will call some_stable_func only once because it can determine all the parameters beforehand.
