You really need EXPLAIN (ANALYZE, BUFFERS) output to be able to undersrand what is going on. A couple of simple things to check: - Have all tables been ANALYZED beforehand? - Are all optimizer database parameters identical? Also, to have PostgreSQL inline the function, which would be good for performance, it should be declared IMMUTABLE.
