As we suspected the SELECT inside a cursor is using a different plan than outside a cursor:
pgipm=# explain analyze DECLARE CUR1 CURSOR FOR

Should it not be the same inside or outside a cursor?
Thank you in advance!

Hi,
We're facing a weird performance problem in one of our PostgreSQL servers running 8.0.26.
What can explain the difference between calling same query inside and outside a cursor? If we run the query outside a cursor we got a response time of 755ms and 33454ms if we call the same query inside a cursor.
I suspect the query called inside the cursor is using a different plan than the same query outside a cursor. Is there a way to confirm this suspicion?
