Some hint could be included in 'explain analyze' output, maybe just to separate the timings for things that are well covered by the query plan optimizer from those that aren't. I found this in a line like this: Filter: (approved AND (NOT archived) AND ((time_to > now()) OR (time_to IS NULL)) AND ((time_from < now()) OR (time_from IS NULL)) AND usercandoonobject(1, 1, 'news'::bpchar, news_id)) These other referenced columns in the filter were all insignificant (time-wise) compared to the single function call, but I had to find that out with a manual search. -- 2.
